Pinay na artista nanalo ng $10,000 sa art fair sa Singapore

Nanalo si Marigold Santos, isang 44-anyos na ina mula sa Pilipinas, ng unang 'Art SG Futures Prize' sa prestihiyosong Art Singapore, na may premyo na $10,000 o halos P600,000. Ang kanyang mga pintura ng 'aswang' ang dahilan ng kanyang tagumpay sa kaganapan na ito. Ito ay isang malaking tagumpay para sa mga Pilipinong artista sa internasyonal na eksena.

Si Marigold Santos, isang 44-anyos na ina mula sa Pilipinas, ay nakatanggap ng unang 'Art SG Futures Prize' sa Art Singapore, ang pinakamalaking art fair sa rehiyon na may mahigit 100 galleries. Inihayag ng Swiss banking giant na UBS ang premyo na ito, na nagkakahalaga ng $10,000 o halos P600,000. Ang kanyang 16 na award-winning works, na pininta sa ink sa hand-marbled paper, ay naglalarawan ng curvaceous witches na sumasayaw bilang bahagi ng kanyang 'Shroud Transfiguration' series. Ang mga obra-master na ito, na sukat ng higit pa sa legal-sized bond paper at nagkakahalaga ng $2,500 bawat isa, ay halos naubos pa bago ang anunsyo ng kanyang panalo.

Pinaligira si Santos ng tatlong international jurors mula sa 37 iba pang mga artista sa 'Futures' section ng fair. Siya ay kinatawan ng Toronto-based gallery na Patel Brown mula pa noong 2019. Lumipat siya sa Canada noong siya ay pito anyos at ngayon ay naninirahan sa Calgary, kung saan niya natanggap ang pormal na art training. Naniniwala siyang kabilang sa kanyang artistic commitment na ipasa ang 'fierce legacies' sa mga Pilipino sa buong mundo, na pinagsasama ang ancestral memory at modern identity.

Bumukas ang Art SG sa publiko noong Jan. 23 at patuloy hanggang ngayon sa Marina Bay Sands Expo and Convention Center. Inihayag ni Magnus Renfrew, co-founder ng art platform, ang award sa simpleng seremonya.
