(1/3) Conveyor Belt World 🌎 one of the first moving paper sculptures I made. Featuring a small animation on each side, this is the sky

Some process photos to show the making of Wriggly Tin, a pleated box that started as a flat sheet of metal. Not sure if pleating metal like this is possible on any machine. But for now, my hands will do 😌

An opium poppy made from paper. Inspired by this highly stylized woodblock print I came across in a 1920s Japanese encyclopedia of plants. #sedensworkshop #opiumpoppyflower #paperflowerart

A heartfelt ★ THANK YOU ★ to everyone who came by my booth to say hi / feed me / keep me going for 3.5 long days @artistprojectto 🤎 It’s not normal for an introvert to hold all these conversations but I’m grateful for this experience. Back to my cave now… 🪨🥀…🫶🏼

Lewis Hyde wrote that the act of transference and circulation is what keeps a gift alive. Every fruit comes with a free gift, a set of instructions for the future. And so, the wind and the animals carry these fruit, and I receive the entire forest inside the palm of my hand.

Hello beautiful strawberries, I have some exciting news 🍓 In case you missed it, I’ve been selected to show as an emerging artist at @artistprojectto this year ~~ if you’re planning to visit please come say hi to me on Mar 26–29th at booth U10. I’m so excited for you to see what I’ve been up to (˶ᵔ ᵕ ᵔ˶) ‹𝟹

📸 @shanikt

Windcatcher (paper, cable chain, metal) 🍃🎐 I’ll be showing this piece and more paper sculptures at @artistprojectto next week Mar 26-29th 🌟 see you there? #paperflower

I’m very excited to share my thesis exhibition, opening March 27 from 6–10pm @mark_christopher_gallery

Gathering works shaped by care, kinship, memory, and protection. Here, sunlight appears as a warmth exchanged between kin, held so long it becomes part of the soul, a tenderness that time cannot evict. Rooted in Kapwa, a core Filipino value of a shared inner self, this body of work moves beyond the singular “I” and toward relation: to ancestors, to family, to flora and fauna, to protection, and to the fragile but enduring networks that allow life to be held.

Featuring works by
Patrick Cruz @gentrified_amateur
Philip Leonard Ocampo @philip.ocampo
Miguel Caba @miguellcaba
Seden Lai @sedensworkshop
Aida De Guia

Curated by (me!) and presented by Mark Christopher

Please join us to celebrate on opening night 🍀

March 27th to April 17
Poster Design by @philip.ocampo
Gallery hours are Wednesday to Sunday 11am to 5pm or by appointment (dm or email me!)

Gallery is closed April 10 and April 12th
