Manila Art 2017

An art fair showcasing the local and invited artists with their contributions to arts and culture.  Below are some that caught my attention.



This was entitled "Kabute", depicts the less fortunate way of living above water.  Intricate bamboo poles and hanging clothing made of brass sculpture.


These are carved crystals.

Below is made of stainless steel and glass.

These are fascinating sculptures showing the roles and occupation of the Filipinos back then.





The lady behind is on acrylic on canvas, while the violin is "mixed media assemblage".

Below are series of "Mindscape Search" from Cosmic Curtain, Stardust Trails, etc.  made of oil on Arches paper.


Below is from Unnie arist.  This is made of old magazine or newpaper, carefully folded to compose the scenery.

Behind are series of "Scent of Time", Puzzle Lock and colored doors. In front are made up of brass and white gray marble.

Lastly, would be a commendation for the Taguig artists who used ostrich egg with carvings.


Visit the exhibit from Oct 12-15, 2017 in SMX Convention Center, SM Aura Taguig City.
