Oo

"Oo" ("Yes"), selected paintings and projects by Maria Cruz, 1996-2008 at the Ateneo Art Gallery until December 13.


the artist, Maria, who is by the way from Baler (wala lang)


"The title of the exhibition is 'Oo', which means 'yes' in Filipino. By inviting the contemplation of an ambiguous space behind the letters 'Oo' -- I seek to draw out conversation, hopefully as somewhat irrational. Don't we need this kind of conversation in an over-designed and commercial world?"

met this future artist, Juliao (son of "art god" Manuel Ocampo), who i spent most of the night with. he liked my silver necktie and just started showing me his anime drawings. he even guarded my food and white wine while i checked out the exhibit inside. such an adorable, smart and talented boy!
