🌱 WHAT IT FEELS LIKE TO BE HERETo wake up with the outline of Mayon Volcano in the distance.To work with the sound of wind, leaves, and people moving around you.It feels slow.It feels present.It feels real.This is the space where art meets nature,where ideas are shaped not just by studios, but by landscapes, stories, and communities.Likha-Likas: Sining at Kalikasan sa Albay Artist Residency invites artists to pause, reflect, and create within the living environment of Albay.Here, the process matters as much as the outcome.Here, you listen—to the land, to people, and to your practice.#LikhaLikas #artistresidencyph #artandenvironment #mayoninspires #albayarts #siningatkalikasan 🌿 ...
