Carmen Brias unveils her latest works in painting and sculpture in an exhibit titled “In A New Light” at Altro Mondo, Greenbelt 5, Makati City. “In A New Light” will feature the Madrileña’s latest works in painting and sculpture, and focuses on the intimate relationship between the two countries (Spain and Philippines) from the artist’s unique perspective.
Brias was born in Manila and lived here until her teenage years before her family moved to Madrid, where her mother, distinguished portraitist and Presidential Medal of Merit for Art and Culture Awardee Betsy Westendorp founded a painting school.
“As an artist, my soul is Filipino. Most of the inspiration for my art comes from my childhood in Manila,” said Brias.
