Welcome to the online catalog of the Illuminating Monochromes exhibit featuring the works of two prominent Filipino artists, sculptor Glenn Cagandahan and painter Roderick Sta. Ana. This exhibit showcases the unique cultural identity expressed through the art of these two talented artists and their interpretation of the importance of family and close bond relationships in the Filipino culture. The exhibit's main subject is highlighted through the monochromatic series of Sta. Ana's modern impressionistic characters, which are complemented by Cagandahan's playful and familial works finished in gold paint as well as his functional light sculptures. As you browse through the catalog, you will witness the contrast between light and shade, which is beautifully emphasized in this exhibit. We hope you enjoy this online catalog and appreciate the artistry and creativity of these two remarkable artists.
