SHIFTING MOODS is a group exhibition of Filipino visual artists, Anita Del Rosario, Jun Impas, and Micah Bodegon. It will be on view from 10 – 26 April 2022 at the ArtistSpace.
Sculptor and jewelry designer Anita Del Rosario, and respected painters Jun Impas and
Micah Bodegon, partner for the first time to showcase in an exhibition, the diversity of Filipino artistry in terms of style and medium with their exhibition Shifting Moods. The three University of Santo Tomas (UST) Alumni came from different batches and have made their names mastering their particular subjects and styles.
A showcase artist of ManilArt 2020 and recognized as one of the Top 100 Women Artists of 2015 by the Cultural Center of the Philippines, Anita Del Rosario presents her much anticipated Redeemer sculpture series alongside her Mother and Child. Del Rosario will be honored by the UST Alumni Association and the UST Atelier Alumni Association, Inc. with the title “Distinguished Artist Award” alongside renowned UST Alumni Artists Ramon Orlina, Andres Barrioquinto, Remy Boquiren, among others, in a special exhibition also at the ArtistSpace this April 2022.
Cebu-based realist painter Jun Impas, for his portion of the exhibition, shares vignettes of ordinary life, taken from both reality, as well as composed genre scenes. Impas graduated college in his forties from a full scholarship from UST given to him in recognition of his talents, as his circumstances were such that he could not go through college as a youth.
The youngest in the group, Micah Bodegon balances his painting with his graphic design practice. Having exhibited with other established painters, like Emmanuel Garibay in 2001, and even with Anita Del Rosario in 2019, Bodegon has had roughly twenty years in his career as painter.
Shifting Moods provides a survey of different techniques and diverse media by the three artists tied together by their love of positive values and their dedication to their craft.
SHIFTING MOODS will be on view with an Artist’s Reception on 10 April 2022 at 5:00 PM at the ArtistSpace located at Ground Level, Ayala Museum Annex, Makati Avenue corner De La Rosa Street, Greenbelt Park, Makati City.
