The gallery will unveil Arellano's new series of reliefs centered on "the end of a woman's life when she renews her virginity." Cajipe-Endaya brings to the collection intricate scrolls that pay homage to the women of the Philippine revolution. Llaguno-Ciani delivers two arresting paintings from Italy, "OFW" and "La Pùi Bella del Mondo." Ramilo offers fascinating urban yet personal interpretations of the contemporary woman with an altar of found objects, a breathtaking wall of sandpaper, and cigarette butts.
