Tibok Sining sa Reposo in Makati City, Philippines




"Hey Woostercollective! A big fat howdy with coco jam on top to y'all from Makati City, Philippines! I regularly check out the wooster site because it really is an inspiration for people all around the world, including myself. A personal favorite of mine is the Storker installation! Placement of those babies is just perfect.

Last weekend, I went to an art and street festival on Reposo St. where they set up some mural painting for the pros and street painting for the kids. It was called Tibok Sining sa Reposo - (ok, i'm taking this from their programme) "a feast for the senses and a celebration of the creative spirit that keeps Reposo Street in Makati alive. Its objective is to serve as a model for urban communities and to encourage them to have their own burst of soul through visual arts, and cultural activities." It's the first festival held on Reposo and it'll probably be an annual event. I thought I'd share some of the pictures I took so people can see some art from the Philippines. REPRAZENT, yo! hahaha! :P

I'm giving you some pictures of the mural (behind the wall is actually a cemetery), and some of the street "painting". Well, it was chalk. But fun anyway!
