Event: Robotars 1st Custom Show @ Art Asia Gallery, Philippines (April 16)

"TOY SAVES TREES! Robotars: robotic tarsiers were designed to destroy, but lived to love."

PRESS: You are invited to the 1st ROBOTARS designer toy custom show! In this exhibition, artists customize a blank resin-cast Robotar sculpture, transforming it into various personalities. Robotars was created by architect and artist Jomike Tejido, who aims to have this independently- produced art toy hop in exhibitions worldwide and promote Philippine art, food and tourism.

For Earth Day 2010, Over 30 artists ranging from professional toy customizers, illustrators of Ang Ilustrador ng Kabataan (Ang InK), painters, graphic designers, and graffiti artists shall break the conventions of high-brow art and unleash Manila urban art. A percent(age) of the proceeds (from) the show shall benefit Haribon Foundation’s rainforestation fund [www].

WHEN: April 16 (Exhibits thru May 15, 2010)
WHERE: Art Asia Gallery, 4th Flr. SM Megamall. Philippines.

I am always encouraged when folks all over the world are as passionate at their craft and creations, and take huge steps like these to get their works (along with their fellow creative-brethren) out there to everyone, and am excited to see where this show takes everyone!
