Galerie Stephanie is highlighting an all-women show featuring contemporary works by Kim Borja, Naburok, Jem Magbanua, and Thea Quiachon.
Borja is an advertising graduate and former multimedia designer whose wide-eyed works are inspired by elements from children's stories.
Magbanua's practice is mainly drawing, specifically how subjects shape each other’s conditions through the merging of points between movement and stagnation, naturalness and artificiality, and comfort and displacement.
Naburok, the youngest of the four artists, lends her name to the character in her series of interconnected digital and traditional illustrations forming an enormous artwork.
Quiachon produces figurative works focusing on stories about people's intricate connections with one another, creating indistinct illustrations personal to her yet open to another individual's interpretation.
