When words fail, ART is the answer.

Cagayano Artist Group's Art Exhibit: ART WITH A CAUSE

February 23, 2016

The Art Month has arrived and the Cagayano Artist Group, Inc. has found its way of putting colors to its celebration.

The Cagayano Artist Group, Inc. organized AGOS (AGI) Art Exhibition at Brickstone Mall, Tuguegarao City last February 17-21, 2016 to share their creativity, tell their stories, create awareness and influence the youth.

My favorite art piece displayed during the exhibit. "The Abyss"
with its creator, Mr. Al "AlMac" Macarrubo.

According to Mr. Al “AlMac” Macarrubo who is a Driftwood Artist participating in the exhibit, AGOS or AGI (in Ibanag/Itawes) means "flow". The reason for choosing the word is obvious. AGOS (AGI) Art Exhibition boasted magnificent art works that reflect the beauty of the bodies of water in Cagayan, and the flow of life around the rivers and the coastal municipalities. 

Specifically, the exhibition displayed beautiful paintings using different mediums and styles - reflecting the mastery and superb skills of the participating artists. There were also stunning abstract wood arts which echoed the exceptional imaginations of their makers. 

To complete the art exhibit experience of their visitors, the Cagayano Artist Group also gave free art workshops wherein their audience were given art tips and free painting sessions. 

Students from University of Saint Louis and children enjoying
the workshop with  one of the participating artists in the exhibit.

Aside from a showcase of talents, the exhibit comes clear with the message that water is vital in our ecological system and to the human race.
