ALLTOGETHER : Negros Oriental Women's Art Exhibition
ALLTOGETHER is an
all-women art exhibition committed to creating an avenue for the amplification
of the female voice in our society. Although it is an identity-centered event,
it veers away from reducing the artwork’s value to its creator’s gender and separates
it from broader histories of art. It seeks, rather, to create a convergence of
creative exchange and build a framework for productive networking among the 37
local women artists of Negros Oriental .
In celebration of International Women’s Month, to showcase the creativity of Negrosanon women in the field of Visual Arts. The exhibition was spearheaded by seasoned artist and Folk singer Jana Jumalon of Network of Artists in Negros Oriental (NANO) ALLTOGETHER is an all-women art exhibition committed to creating an avenue for the amplification of the female voice in society.
