Sculptor Impy Pilapil presents her latest series of works in simultaneous exhibitions opening on September 1, 2011 at the Alliance Française Total Gallery (Aquabella 2011) and on September 3 at the Avellana Art Gallery.  The theme is inspired by the constant quest for knowledge on the mysteries of physical and spiritual life and how better understanding fulfills our role as human beings in this universe.

Steel, stone and glass are harnessed into forms that allude to the unseen and often ignored phenomena in our world.  We encounter her signature liquid forms along with fresh new ones that evoke her latest subject matter: The Spiral.

The Spiral secretly manifests itself in all forms of life. With the sun’s spiral orbit, as the progenitor of all life on this planet, it subtly appears in growth patterns of  all living organisms, weather conditions, and even evolution itself –showing how all life is connected by unseen mysterious forces that transcend  material existence.

Impy Pilapil’s exhibition “Aquabella 2011” opens on Thursday, September 1, 2011, at the Alliance Française Total Gallery of the Alliance Française de Manille and will run until September 29, 2011. 

Alliance Française de Manille is located at 209 Nicanor Garcia St. (formerly Reposo St.) Bel-Air 2, Makati City.
