Art Fair Philippines 2016

Art Fair Philippines was launched in 2013. It aims to showcase Philippine modern and contemporary art in the country's business and commercial district. Since its foundation, it has featured a number of local artists, and several art galleries in the Metro. As it continues to grow, even galleries from Southeast Asia, Japan, Hong Kong, and Taiwan participated in the event. The art scene was such a feast to the eyes.



The collection of artworks in Art Fair was vast. Two floors are reserved for this year's fair at The Link. It puts the limelight on all kinds of contemporary and modern art, and is seriously overwhelming. It really lives up to its dubbed name, Beyond the Link. To truly savor every piece, might actually take the whole day.



I loved too many pieces. If only I have the funds to take them home with me. Also, I do apologize in advance, because of the crappy photos (I only used my phone, and was too busy feeling all the feels).

This sculpture was one of my top favorites. It's called "Four Beasts Girl" by Akira Miyamoto.



Now, for some colors. "In Flux series: Tribute to the Little Prince: Sahara Sky, His Rose, Hidden Well, Asteroid B-12, Secret of the Prince, and Sahara Sunset" by Michelle Perez.



These eyes speak volumes.



This was among the first pieces I saw, and I fell in love with it quickly. "Toys Are Us" by Gabriel Barredo.



Always in awe of Raffy Napay's works. "Father and Son" was also made of thread, but glows in the dark. Captivating.

Only one of the many beautifully haunting ceramic sculptures by Lara de los Reyes. This effortlessly won me.





I wanted to post everything, but I did not take enough photos, nor did I have any decent ones good enough to give the artworks justice.

Anyway, do visit Art Fair at The Link. Whether you're an art enthusiast or a human simply searching for visual pleasures, Art Fair will definitely satisfy your creative cravings.
