Confluence2

Collaborative artworks by Suzette Bernardo-Montelibano, photography; Lanelle Abueva-Fernando, pottery; and Lisa de Leon-Zayco, mosaic; on display at Globe Art Gallery. Opens today and will be here till October 30 Mondays to Fridays 9am to 6pm. Globe Tower Forum (basement level), 32nd St. cor. 7th Ave., BGC, Taguig. Hope to see you there

Come, see and experience for yourself, the works of Abueva-Fernando, De Leon-Zayco and Bernardo-Montelibano in a rare exhibit of women who can rock your senses.

  They  bring to this exciting, multi-sensory exhibit a taste of their individual works showcasing how they continue to evolve as artists and what makes them forces to contend with.

Suzette Bernardo-Montelibano is a rare gem among a sea of photographers who continues to elevate and differentiate fine art photography with her insightful eye for architectural lines even in the most ordinary of things, bringing to light what one is unable to see before.

 Lisa de Leon-Zayco was recently commissioned to create a mosaic 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.

 Lanelle Abueva-Fernando is no stranger to the art world, owning her own brand of pottery. The discipline she has earned after years of apprenticeship in Japan yet unbridled by her spirit yields free-form shapes and swathes of uncommon glazes.

  Take2 for Artis3
After a successful artistic confluence last year, Artis3 has once more come together for another collaboration taking their artistry to a whole new level.
Boldness is perhaps what comes to mind as they bolt out of their comfort zones, taking on an approach that is not usually expected of them. This time, they sought to view nature with an eye for the abstract.
Master potter Lanelle Abueva-Fernando, mosaic artist Lisa de Leon-Zayco, and fine art photographer Suzette Bernardo-Montelibano share their passions to create pieces of mix media never done before. At first glance, you cannot help but be awed by the beautiful, cohesive whole. However, you will find that it draws you in, pulls you in realizing that the minute details hold the uniqueness of each art genre thereby telling more stories than meets the eye. You can almost feel the hand print in the pottery, the nips and cracks of each tesserae, and the blend of light and color of the photograph that holds it together.
It is disrupting yet calming. Bold yet graceful. Powerful yet refined.

Thank you CJ Jesena for inviting me to see this wonderful exhibit!   Robert Montelibano, the creative Director for the show and more importantly the husband of Suzette 🙂
