"HALIMUYAK", Size: 46 x 53 x 80 cm (width x thickness x height), modified mixed media chair by Jef Cablog, 2022
Continuing its advocacy for mental health and the need for dialogue about depression, grief, and other related issues, “The Empty Chair Project” is continued by the Visual Arts Helping Hands Foundation Inc in collaboration with Art Lounge Manila. With over 40 artists contributing to this effort, the project not only hopes to bring art and healing together, but also raise funds for the art community’s medical needs.
“At the deepest level, the creative process and the healing process arise from a single source. When you are an artist, you are a healer; a wordless trust of the same mystery is the foundation of your integrity.” - Rachel Naomi Remen, MD
The exhibition will run from July 11- 24, 2022 at Art Lounge Manila - Podium in Ortigas Center, Mandaluyong. The opening reception will be on July 14, 2022 at 6:00 PM.
