He emerged into the Philippine art scene at a time when his contemporaries were working mostly within the bounds of Social Realism. Lebajo, tread his own\npath from abstraction towards his own unique kind of Philippine Surrealism, interpreting his natural surroundings in both lyrical and curious ways - being labeled afterwards, a pioneer of Environmental Surrealism.
\n\nLebajo’s art is as playful and mysterious as it is quietly introspective. He begins by taking inspiration from his natural environment. Vast landscapes, plants, still lifes, animals - the artist takes these familiar visuals and reinvents them in ways that allow viewers to experience the mundane in a new, inquisitive light. And yet, despite his meticulous and ambitious renderings, Lebajo claims he paints simply what he sees and feels, as seen on this triptych titled Park Series - showing just how intuitive his manner of Surrealism is at its core.","lot_group":"PAINTING","lot_details_html":"
