Artile in Grey
A New Platform for Art
Exploring a different surface as a platform for art is part of the process in finding a new home for your ideas. The journey of trekking new grounds will challenge you to break the normal routine as there will be surprises and challenges. These circumstances can either beak us, shape us to be a better individual.
Systems were created to organize chaos, and protect them from harmful environments. These systems will be tested and in time they will be obsolete or no longer effective. Innovations arise, but there is fear in embracing them. We are afraid because it is beyond normal, it is still beyond our reach. A new hope, a new solution for a better tomorrow. The future is unsure but if we strengthen our foundations, we will be ready to face any situation.
Dr. Ria Canlas was awarded the Good Design Award because of her PoLite invention. Her blocks are eco friendly, fireproof, and has more tensile strength than any existing construction blocks. It also surpass the standards in building process and final presentation. This same materials and process are now extended in creating tiles, introducing a new player or a different kind of choice that is not included in the regular menu.
Working with individuals who embrace challenges is like a community that find new solutions to elevate and uplift each other. Some roads or process may be ineffective and encounter failures, but these tracks will help you find a better road. Even creating a greater unexpected journey.
Combining different pigments to white matter will strip its purity. But imperfection creates a new character, a new personality. A new surface that can be a new home of a soaring idea.
Let’s explore new materials. Experience new platforms. Embrace a new future.
