Nine Inch Nails in Manila, Wave Goodbye Tour (August 5, 2009)

After a long hiatus....(and surprisingly finding myself in an OK job in government while simultaneously rediscovering my "artistic side(s)" ) I will attempt to start blogging once again in the hopes that it will only provoke more excitement in my life...yup, that's it.

Nattura (Iceland)

Nattura is a movement in Iceland seeking to stir debate and awareness for local environmental issues, especially in relation to the encroaching heavy smelting industry compounding the effects of climate change on Iceland's unique landscapes. Primarily initiated by the artist Bjork, the group has as its goal supporting small businesses and steering Icelandic society and economy towards sustainability.

Here's 2 music clips related to Nattura taken from the National Geographic, both from Icelandic artists I've always been drawn to.

First one's a live rendition of Sigur Ros' Gobbledigook performed during the Nattura concert in June 2008 . Second one's Bjork's Earth Intruders.






Art and sustainability: a fertile mix?

His Heart, Our Art: The Amorsolo Retrospective

Fernando Amorsolo, the First Philippine Artist in Painting, is well known for his portraits and paintings of women and landscapes. But he is best known for his backlight technique, his greatest contribution to painting. Using this trademark technique, his subjects become outlined against a golden glow and a burst of light in one part of the canvas serves to highlight small details nearby. He had what one would call a love affair with sunlight. And it showed clearly in his pieces. His works were always suffused with natural light, which made for rich and vibrant colors.

With this, his idealism is clearly reflected in his work. The light shining on the Filipina beauty rivals the glow in her eyes. The daily routines that occupy his subjects become illuminated with his brush. The setting is simple and bountiful, unfamiliar to darkness and hunger and strife.
