Students showcase pieces at Makati’s Art in the Park
It's Quiet Down Here (22.86 by 30.48 cm, acrylic, 2023) by Dugs, who related, "Instead of drowning in the noise of the world, I sometimes imagine that I am drowning underwater instead. Yes, it may be a bit morbid, but hey at least it's quiet down here."
Inner Beast (40.64 by 30.48 cm, acrylic, 2023) by JussDC. "Inside all of us lies a beast that seeks only to survive and protect in this cold and harsh environment we live in," the artist said.
Ever since the year 2006, Art in the Park continues to strike awe and wonderment into the hearts of the continuously expanding, more appreciative Philippine arts and culture community. After all, the annual event gathers sterling galleries with artists of note as well as budding art spaces and independent collectives together all in one fun-filled eye-opening affair.
It keeps its mission of making visual arts accessible in two ways. The event finds home at the laidback, newly-enhanced Jaime Velasquez Park in Salcedo Village, Makati City, a welcome reprieve right at the heart of the desired residential area, and the price range ranges from P70,000 and way below, for new collectors or to serve as ideal gifts for those who have everything.
