: Flores De Mayo

Flowers are in full bloom for Galerie Joaquin’s featured collection for the month of May

“Flores De Mayo” (Flowers of May) features works that explore the many layers of meaning found in both flowers, harvest, and culture, and the complex relationships they have in society.

The collection’s namesake stems from a religious event held in honor of the Virgin Mary. As it is celebrated in May, the Philippines’ harvest season, Flores De Mayo is a form of thanksgiving and considered a culmination of collective healing and solidarity.

“Flores De Mayo” features works by Aileen Lanuza, Ann Moneda, April Lopez, Art Lozano, Barbara Angeles, Ciara Fabie, James Gabito, Janddie Castillo, Jayvee Santos, Joseph Albao, Joy Calanasa, Jun Rocha, Karina Baluyut, Mario Parial, Michael Pastorizo, Milmar Onal, Nelson Castillo, Perfecto Palero, Richard Perez, and Dr. Ronnie Lim.
