“In the fading afternoon light” evokes memories close to my heart “he says. Brave Singh’s recent solo show is a continuation of his homage to memories. It tells stories of his childhood, this time, with he and his grandfather as the focal point of each piece. Growing up with no father figure to look up to, it was his Lolo who tried to fill the void.

Old piano, dilapidated chairs and fragments of things and belongings with strong personal attachment bringing vivid flashbacks of his yesterdays. All throughout the years, he spent most of the time in the province. This has greatly brought major influences in the subjects that he paints. Obviously most of it are his memories of the pasts involving his family, his experiences and his environment. Evidently seen in his firsts solo show entitled “Surviving Traces”.

Memento

September 10, 2017

Pinto Art Gallery

September 10, 2017 - October 1,  2017

     In our life, we all experience season of fall. A time to shed, a time to dry up, a time to let go. This was the time when my beloved mother passed away. It was one of the hardest piece of leaf to let go. But its part of the cycle of life we all encounter. The fallen leaves may pile up, be rotten and eaten up by land, but it has again serve its purpose to provide nutrients for future things to grow. As the memories may stay in our hearts forever also with wisdom that life has taught us.

    As the season of fall ends, the time of spring has to start. A time to bloosom new leaf, new beginnings. This part of my life has given me the opportunity to experience how to be with my long lost father. A time to renew bondings where part of it is to reminisce the past. Spring showed me that letting go the past makes me recognize what the present offers and enjoy what she has left me... a time to move on and start a new beginning...

Recollection

march 10,2018

Blanc Gallery

March 10, 2018 - March 31, 2018

In our everyday lives, we often encounter things or objects that suddenly give us a flashback, a moment to think, a time to reminisce and to reflect. A moment where it will remind us of something that is significant, something that is worth remembering and something to look back to. No matter how remote the memories are, when its relevance comes upfront, we can’t help ourselves and our subconscious mind to recall. Today’s experiences, events and the people around us will be our next recollection sometime, somewhere. It’s inevitable.

Brave's masterpieces give a breath of how he treasures the memories, places and people which has been part of his entirety
As he continues to thread the path of life, he was able to reconcile things that he had been looking for to justify his existence. And he believes that it would never be too late to add more hues to his life's canvass. He may not have the sweetest lullabies during his younger years but he believes that he had the best fatherly pat on the shoulder after more than three decades of longing. It was never too late to begin a journey he missed.
Embracing life challenges has always been his staple story. People come and go. All the memories are always cherrished and kept in his heart. They may no longer be a rubbing elbow buddy or an afternoon chat friend but he keeps everyone alive as he immortalize their lives through the experiences he had with them. Never gone and still lingering around.
Life's journey completes with places that refreshes his memories of the people and experiences he had. The landscape may have changed but the feeling of nostalgia brings back his spirit back to time specially upon seeing significant remnants still intact.Time may have ran so fast and unchasable but it still gives the spirit of coming back to where it had been...
