Art Fair 2018

Art Fair Philippines is one of my favorite annual events because I am guaranteed to see works that will inspire me. This year, I visited the fair on a Friday to avoid the weekend crowd. 

I started my day with a delicious breakfast sandwich and a double-double. I was fascinated with the knit design of Tim Hortons’ cup, as it reminded me of my recent Knitting Adventure at Banaue.

I also had some quiet time at Greenbelt Chapel.

Meeting THE Kidlat Tahimik was the highlight of my visit. He is known as the Father of Philippine Cinema. Here was his imposing work.

I also attended a special screening of Kidlat Tahimik’s films at the roofdeck.

I had a wonderful day at the fair and I am definitely inspired to infuse whimsy and design into the everyday.
