An Hour In A Glass Balloon Film Screening & Artist Talk Happens On Sept. 18

You are invited to a special behind-the-scenes peek at Chati Coronel's An Hour in a Glass Balloon, her first painting show in the Philippines after many years living in the States. Currently showing at SLab, her work reveals a magical world that leaps off the canvas and projects into the individual. She paints the softness of the feminine form and the boldness of a woman's sensuality - contradictions that are not necessarily in conflict with one another.

On Saturday, September 18, get a chance to see a series of short movies that document Coronel's journey, which started from an idea floating in her head. Made by her husband, Edber Mamisao, the series entitled Postcards from Infinity: Eight Moving Portraits from the Glass Balloon, lets us in on the woman behind it all, her process and her work.

Coronel will also be giving a short artist talk to complement the film screening.

This event is free of charge. RSVP call 8160044 or email manage@silverlensphoto.com

An Hour in a Glass Balloon by Chati Coronel runs simultaneously with Divides by Rhett Eala at Silverlens Gallery, and Contra-Affair by Dina Gadia at 20SQUARE.
