Uptown Mall, BGC

We are thrilled to present Tish Alcantara’s first solo exhibition, Wagara: From Kimono to Canvas. Tish’s interest in Japanese-style patterns that adorn kimonos inspired her to bring her own artistic spin to the millennia-old tradition. In this exhibition, she explores storytelling through creating patterns.

Each piece in the exhibition showcases Tish’s unique perspective and her ability to transform traditional art forms into modern masterpieces. From lovers entwined in blossoms of maru mon to mother-and-child works filled with sakura blossoms, each piece is imbued with intricate patterns with hidden meanings.

Tish believes that consistency and quality are key to becoming a master in any field. Her commitment to mastering the art of wagara is evident in every piece she creates. Join us and witness Tish Alcantara’s Wagara: From Kimono to Canvas. Happening at Art Circle Gallery Uptown BGC.
