I listen (1), I hear, paint (2), The sound (3), The radio (4), Goes on (5), 2024

This 2024 mixed media artwork by Gordon Tardio is composed of five abstract panels painted on handmade Thai mulberry paper (kada sa). Titled I Listen (1), I Hear, Paint (2), The Sound (3), The Radio (4), Goes On (5), the work is both visual and poetic — a sequence of colour and motion echoing the rhythm of language and perception. Blended layers of coral, aqua, yellow and black create a sensory experience grounded in reflection and repetition. The hand-torn paper edges and spontaneous brushstrokes enhance its tactile, ephemeral quality.
