Adrian Jay Manuel

For 26 years, Adrian Jay Manuel dedicated himself to art, driven by a deep passion. Humbled by his artistic journey took him from realistic and abstract painting. Explored acrylics, oils and watercolors to the challenging world of sculpture. Worked with epoxy and clay but the hammered brass sculpture captured his heart. Proud of his 14 years of dedicated work in sculpture that much reflects the beauty of Philippine culture, society and his own personal experiences. He feel a strong responsibility to preserve and promote Filipino heritage, especially among the younger generation. His greatest accomplishment is founding the Alitaptap Artists Community and Alitaptap Recreational Hub, where they nurture the next generation’s understanding and appreciation of indigenous Filipino culture. He also organize art festivals like Paghilom and proponent of Sininggamutan, and a proud member of the Pito-Pito Art Group of Cavite.
