“The only people for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn, like fabulous yellow roman candles exploding like spiders across the stars and in the middle you see the blue center-light pop and everybody goes "Awww!” - Kerouac
Have you ever thought of a special place which serves us home for: madness and sanity, surrealism and realism, transition and static, daze and haze as well as everything in between all of these? Perhaps you have imagined this ideal place somewhere and you have bounced back to your waking life finding nowhere. Today, you find “that” Rendezvous.
Rendezvous is a fusion of art that is old and told, ancient and contemporary, harmonious and ambiguous. It is not a two-man show of Art just for beauty's sake but a slow train ride that seeps through how beautiful is the mind, how vast is the heart and how restless are the hands. It is a collaboration of greatly different media and perceptions bind by the same passion- to create, to mold that special venue that lets every viewer to not just look at but definitely, look into. A venue that awakens emotional telepathy that transcends.
Rendezvous showcases the intricacies of Escario and the perplexities of Duterte and the eccentricity of both. This is your ticket to a no mainstream art destination. Rendezvous is a taste of utopia. Sights and styles that either hits you home at the gut of your bewilderment.
Rendezvous.
Artistic radicalism. Boundary between dreams and consciousness. Call it a place, or yes, a pitfall.

But since life comes in different perspectives, these stories come in contrast to each other. Diptych, a catalyst that two pictures always comes together, whether they may be depicting somehow a similarity in their own behalf, or either sharing the same kind of story to you.

Everyday in our lives we tend to see things around us that may appear as illusions of images that happen to blend with nature. Usually, these images are seen on a splat of paint, stains on wall, rust on an iron sheet and the most common are images on clouds. This reaction to our environment is called “mental image”, and it is caused by our brain’s creative consciousness. This natural reaction to non-deliberate materials is affected by some factors in our life the Fragments of our Consciousness.
