MANILA – Artis3, composed of renowned women artists Lanelle Abueva-Fernando, Lisa de Leon-Zayco and Suzette Bernardo-Montelibano, returns for their second group exhibit titled Confluence2.
Running until October 23 at the Globe Art Gallery, the exhibit follows the success of Confluence last year which fused the medium of photography, glass and ceramics to define a common aesthetic abstract form.
Lanelle Abueva-Fernando is a master potter with a brand of pottery earned after years of apprenticeship in Japan marked by free-form shapes and swathes of uncommon glazes.
Leon-Zayco is a mosaic artist who was recently commissioned to create a version of one of Señor Juvenal Sansó’s famed artworks. Each piece painstakingly put together now graces the entrance of the newly-opened Sanso Museum in San Juan.
The photos gracing the exhibit is from Bernardo-Montelibano, a key figure in the fine art photography scene known for a keen eye for architectural lines even in the most ordinary of things, bringing to light what one is unable to see before.
Confluence2 opened last October 1, attended by important guests, including Ernest Cu, Globe Telecom President and CEO, Edwin Valencia, Deutsche Knowledge Services CEO and Señor Juvenal Sansó, global Filipino artist.
“The exhibit took guests from one breathtaking emotion to another with their powerful yet refined visuals. The different genres combined in a single canvas were both disrupting and calming. They all took the non-traditional route, out of their comfort zones that resulted in bold yet graceful collaborative artworks” said a press statement.
