Patis Tesoro and Odette Cagandahan at Finale Art File

MANILA, Philippines - Patis Tesoro and Odette Cagandahan hold their back-to-back self-titled exhibits tomorrow at Finale Art File, Warehouse 17, La Fuerza Compound, Gate 1, 2241 Pasong Tamo, Makati City.

The fabric creations of Tesoro provided the originating spark for Cagandahan’s oeuvre. Painting fabric down to its intricate detail, Cagandahan conveyed the nuanced expressions of their wearers. Tesoro, on the other hand, exemplifies her profound passion for detail, and how minute gestures become elaborate ornamental expressions.
