I discovered Ian's work through Melvin Arciaga. Ian, Melvin, and David Hontiveros are working on a not-so-secret project and I can't wait for them to done with those pieces.
For the moment, come into the gallery and don't be afraid to get close to the exhibit. Just don't touch them. Please.

I figured that this amazing guy's works will eventually find its way here one day, and I was right! XD I was Ian's guest juror that time and you have to believe me when I say that these super detailed figures are actually TINY. Even Sir Noel Flores was thoroughly impressed. (Ian must have CSI vision!)
ReplyDeleteWhere can I find his thesis? His sculptures were said to be inspired by his thesis. I want to read it.
