The works of wilfredo Alicdan elighten and inspire. Alicdan’s serene figures sit,stand anf pose for the canvas,charmingly unassuming,effectively baring their scene to the observer. The bold shapes and solid backgrounds draw the viewers eye away from nitpicking at the details and instead towards the appreciation of form and composition of each of his works
Among his works, one should take the time look around the canvas. aside from figures, alicdan inserts little plays of whimsy here and there that suggest a depth of thought in the artist”s works. The overly rotound shapes are cast in the outline of Alicdan’s intriguing scenes; a couple motorcycling in space , a family literally placing their home on the map.
Yet the simple still thrive on the artist’s paints: warm family figures dining on a picnic, love for a mother and child, even images of lovers either separated by walls or just playfully in love. the beauty of alicdan’s works lie in their ability to show a true side of human emotion.
