From the Lubi Art Residency Program in Davao de Oro all the way to its first iteration in his exhibition in New York, Anading’s intermingling of upcycled materials with new art expressions receives another public viewing for the residents of Metro Manila through his latest show at Silverlens Gallery. The exhibition demonstrates the artist’s conceptual approach while using different media—objects, video, photographs, and drawings—all derived from his diving expeditions in Lubi.

There is a strange, affecting nostalgia to Carina Santos’ so-called “pour paintings,” evocative abstract paintings that employ material, gesture and chance to conjure up memories of terrains and skies. Looking at the artist’s paintings from the series sometimes feels like staring out of windows, and into a hazy view of remembrances from the natural world.
