Art seen: Davao 2021 | #1



Look what I bought (in my dreams)!

Art appreciation is subjective. Here are my favorites from the recent exhibits at the SM Lanang Premier art popup market, Art Portal Gallery for Contemporary Art and Down South Art Gallery. These are artists I admire and if I have the space in my tiny home — and moolah, most importantly — I will add these pieces to my collection:
