Ocampo’s Revelation V, painted within the year of his untimely death in December 1978, is quintessentially Ocampo from its color sensibilities to his composition. Lauded for his immediate and arresting control over his hues, Revelation V follows the ranks of Ocampo’s reverent works as his usage of tropical colors makes the works “glow from within,” a staggering usage of light quite unique to the Philippines. Similar to Fernando Amorsolo’s’ captivating Philippine sunlight, the brightness of Ocampo’s works echoes the same sentiments – that is, his works, like so many of the eminent artists before him, capture the Philippines and its brightness quite accurately. <br /><br /> Ocampo is mainly a self-taught artist, and unlike many of his contemporaries, he opted to stay in the Philippines, refusing multiple offers of sponsored overseas studies in favor of cultivating his own visual language. It can be argued, then, that Ocampo’s works are truly and fully Filipino. <br /><br /> “Ocampo’s life generally parallels the character of his painting: a melting pot of East and West,” Manuel Duldulao wrote in Contemporary Philippine Art. “His plastic language draws its content from native sources and its mode from foreign currents – especially from the concepts of the Bauhaus and color theories of Albers – arriving at a personal idiom that is somewhere between Expressionism and Impressionism.” <br /><br /> Indeed, Ocampo’s Revelation V is a testament to the artist’s lasting legacy. At the forefront of the modernism movement in the Philippines, Ocampo’s works championed these so-called “Western” practices and proved that they, too, are at their core truly Filipino.
