pinoy pride

how exciting!  two more reasons for us pinoys to be proud of!

well, here's another one:  new york-based mia herbosa.  she's just really so talented!

glad i got to see the show in ayala museum with you and ngow earlier.  this poster's her self portrait which she enjoys doing.



this was what i liked -- "the dancer".


i like how the subject is very modern and nontraditional -- a male, old (gay-looking) dancer.  i didn't like the price -- 90k!!!

this was what ngow liked -- it was of mia's daughter --  he liked the technique a lot.


this was what you liked -- although i just took your photo with it since the glass made it impossible to take the photo.  it was a sad & powerful piece, very unlike you but maybe it's your current broken arm that makes you relate to broken subjects :(


then we trekked to another place worth being proud of -- ac 632 -- did you know that that stands for area code 632 -- hence, manila?

this is what i WANT -- just one though. can't afford all haha!


this is what you liked, 


but i think it's only because you liked the similar piece from terence conran :)


yun lang...
