856G Gallery together with Tropical Futures Institute and Beta Operations presents video works by RV Sanchez and Ernest Diño. 

RV Sanchez works on video, performance, and varieties of media addressing issues in contemporary society. His video work Taped deals with the idea of consumerism in society and people’s neglectful tendency towards the environment. The video was filmed during his residency at Healing Hill Art Space in India last December 2017.

Ernest Diño lives in the ethos of punk rock. He works on sound, photography and moving images. He cuts, copies and pastes mundane clips of sounds, videos, still images creating new dimensionalities. His video work Disprosopus explores the relationship between imperfect images and spectation as an ordeal. 

Ernest and Rv are two of the founders of Beta Operations that launched in 2016, with the aim of exploring new media tools for artistic production and exhibition and to promote new media art to the Cebuano audience and beyond.

The show opened last January 11, 2018. The show is until January 222018

Tie One

 Jonathan See Lim AKA Tie One (1979–1998), was a graffiti artist based in the San Francisco Bay Area. He was well known in the graffiti community for his aggressive style of graffiti art and the large amount of work he produced. Lim was born in the Philippines to ethnic-Chinese parents. During his early childhood, his family moved to California. -pilipinas-streetplan http://pilipinastreetplan.blogspot.com/2009/03/tie-one-19791998-rip.html Saint Patrick’s Day has always been difficult to celebrate because on this day eleven years ago, our friend and soldier Tie, Jonathan See Lim, was murdered in the Tenderloin of San Francisco on Turk and Taylor. A man named William Porter shot him in the back of his head while Tie was begining to climb a rooftop to pain. Of cource the SF police covered it up as a robbery and our 18 year old little buddies death went unvindicated. He was a major influence to us all and his memory will live on in our hearts. - saberone  http://saberone.com/blog/2009/

Wrap-Up Week-End

Garapata in Bacolod . Many artists from all over the archipelago went to Bacolod last Nov. 13-16, 2014 to participate for the Viva Excon 2014.  The art event is more of a traditional art event rather  than a "primary flight-ish" or !ha? but it didn't  stop street artists to do what they do best. Paint Jam by Soika, Buen Abrigo and    Cori Franchesca Co in Bacolod  Garapata Stop Over in Cebu. He painted with cebuano local street artists, Soika (a Viva Excon Participant), WR, Bart and CrazyMaggot. Free Anting-Anting . Sprouting in Talamban, Cebu City. Really nice to see street art in Cebu making a comeback with new talents. I thought the difference between Cebu and Manila is that the former ceased to produce new talents while the latter had an endless supply. I was wrong! Yummy in Busay. Yummy is Bart's younger brother. He is quite unique in Cebu, and has a distinct inking style. Dr. Karayom for ESC Project Escol
