THIS IS WHERE HOPE COMES TO DIE

I'm going back to being artsy, I left that street a long time ago. Threw my 7 exhibits away and moved on. Art was really nice but it was a two way street where the art and the artist must be in direct harmony. And I just realized I love art but there is more that I love to do.

anyways...

We went to this exhibit at LRI, together with my two P's:


PAUL JATAYNA


PATRICK PADILLA


and Two newly found friends from Lookbook..

KARL LEUTERIO
yes, the person I made a blog about.

and
MIKE MAGALLANES


and they were my company. They were perfect.
Fun and Fab.


so the art was unique. the thought of the exhibit was nice, but I was not used to this kind of art. I was made to appreciate the surreal and the classic ones. This is maybe because my mom is an artist/animator and almost all the members of my moms family are artists.

This are some of the works on the exhibit.

This is a shrine like photo, look closely at the details in the Picture. There are saints and holy things surrounding the naked girl.

this looked like a LEE ad but with the glow in the dark giant rosary and insect, it looked like a window display.


This are two of the four portrait like works on the exhibit.
I think the medium is charcoal.


This is what Patrick and Pauly liked,
A sort of Marilyn Manson-like photo with Paint drippings on top.




This is another Painting Patrick loved, the print on the side was very nice. I thought it was louie but Patrick said it was ______. idk.


This was a little disturbing, not. This was placed above..

...above this Robot made out of Boxes.
They were painted and was very much colorful.


And this was the works I liked.........

This is like a kid and...


...and this is like the adult version.

I liked the realism of the painting. Now this is a portrait.
There is a distinction among the other works.

Another is.....

...AJ's work. I think it will speak for itself.
But for the past 19 years of my life seeing paintings, there is a certain thing in this painting that I loved. The emotion and again, the realism. There is a meaning and an inspiration. Not just a work made to present and to be seen but a work to be remembered.


In the exhibit itself, I liked the photos scattered on the tables. You are free to look at it or even take them home. The photos were amazing; i mean on all aspects. The theme, lighting and the story behind each photograph. One photo even got a "fierce" comment from my friends.

This was the photos on our table.

Also, i loved the fact that when we went inside the exhibit, it was dark and you will be given a light bulb to place anywhere or in front of the work that you liked.

I placed mine near the door but I ended up bringing home one light bulb, as a remembrance perhaps?

The best part of the day was bonding with this 4 great people...

Thats MIKE on the left, me right there in the middle and KARL on the right.

Me and Karl made chika, He's super nice.

I cant forget PATs "couture/contortionist" dance steps.
I super duper miss this person.


And PAULY, i love for taking me to the exhibit.

and I got to meet...

AJ the artist.




.and overall.
It was a lively and lovely event.

ciao!

and I get to take home my Light bulb.
