...IN THE CONSTANT RAIN...
July 13 - August 31, 2019
Galleria Duemila
In her pursuit to understanding the ‘self,’ Ambie Abaño probes into the essence of the ‘Self,’ detached from the context of time. In her exhibition “...in the constant rain...”, she tackles the subject with a body of works in large format engraved wood, explorative woodcut prints and installation. “‘Self’ is a constant. ‘Self’ transcends time.” – Ambie Abaño
Ambie Abaño started painting and exhibiting in 1986.
In the following year, she won the Grand Prize in the Painting Category of the Art Association
of the Philippines Open Art Competition. In 1998, she started to create prints at the workshop of the Philippine Association of Printmakers in CCP Complex where she continues to work, conduct workshops and actively participate in printmaking projects.
