Visual artist Aileen Lanuza, currently making waves in the Southeast Asian contemporary art scene, sheds light on finding refuge in embracing their individuality in her seventh solo show, “Sanctuary of Singularity”. Inspired by the beauty of composition, Aileen likens the layering of colors to stories and experiences that make up an identity. Lanuza celebrates the beauty of uniqueness and individuality as she continues with her signature style of women clad in classic Filipiniana dresses, gazing alluringly towards their audience behind an assortment of flowers, heeding them to look beyond the tiers of their stories.

Lanuza (b. 1982), who graduated as cum laude in Fine Arts in the University of the Philippines, continues to achieve a lot throughout her 16 years in the art industry, having participated in more than 60 group shows all over the Philippines and various areas in Southeast Asia and Canada. Her works have also graced publications like “A Treasury of Philippine Nudes”, “Laserati: Pictures of Asia”, “Rhythms: Philippine Dance on Canvas”, and “Filipino Artists in Their Studios (Vol.2)”. She continues to paint images of women and flowers as titular characters of her philosophies.
