This July, Babao is mixing all these elements of passion, art, friendship and investments into a palette of noble enterprise. He has parlayed his connections into donating paintings for a fundraising auction where all proceeds will go into building an entire village for Gawad Kalinga in Bagong Silang, Caloocan. Gawad Kalinga is a movement for nation-building that aims to transform poverty stricken areas with the goal of building 700,000 homes in seven years (2003-2010). He has upped the ante and decided to sponsor an entire village. “We’ll be building 25-30 houses and we’ll be calling it Art 40 Village,” he says. The number 40 holds sentimental value. “I’m turning 40 this year and this is actually my birthday project.” After the houses are built, Babao plans to invite all the involved artists to paint murals on the façades of the house to inject public art into the community.

 Recollections
by
Marika B. Constantino
"Come to me in the silence of the night, Come to me in the speaking silence of a dream. Come with soft rounded cheeks and eyes as bright as sunlight on a stream. Come back in tears, O memory, hope, love of finished years." -- Christina Rossetti --
Vestiges of the past always strike a chord – discordant or harmonious, a chord nonetheless. The reality is that we are the offshoots of these memories… shared, personal, replete with sentiment.
Marina Cruz-Garcia takes stock of these reminiscences and transforms them into works of art that highlight the significance of these moments and personages. Recollections is a personal journey for the artist. It is her own way of paying homage to the people who have touched her life and those who continue to provide encouragement and motivation in her creative process. The amalgam of artifacts, relics, communal experiences and individual chronicles stimulated Marina to go through this avenue of exploration which in turn resulted into her own self-discovery.
What is more admirable about this assemblage is the fact that Marina not only allows us to travel with her, but, through her compositions, she also invites us to take our own voyage. The potency of the paintings transcends Marina's own intentions towards an experience that are more familiar to the viewer. The canvases delicately engage you to look at the various inspirations of your own personal history. They are not unabashed nor barefaced portrayals, they are subtle… lingering even. The more you stare at the highly textured works, the glaring recesses of your soul are bared.
A unifying element of this montage is the antique effect that the artist employs. Through this, Marina ably evokes a sense of nostalgia. However, despite this vintage wash, one does not get an obtrusive and flagrant depiction of the past. This attenuate quality was achieved because of how she was able to creatively incorporate her innovative compositions, temperate palette and contemporary symbolisms with the elements of memory into the pictorial plane. The combination of which, results into a balanced and ethereal window into the past, present and even the future.
The sheer intensity of the works in Recollections engages your senses to come attuned to the message that each canvas puts forth.
Simply put, a memory is one manner wherein we can embrace those whom we love, it is a retelling of who we are and more importantly, it is a way to hold on to what we never want to lose. Marina Cruz-Garcia's Recollections ably reminds us about what matters.
