"Dagta-an: Forming New Perspectives” traces the history of the art group Baysulangpu” and showcases the works of members who joined as far back as 2001 and the works of recent members. Using the word “dagta-an” which is to stain, to blot, to color in Hiligaynon, the art group is ushering in a new generation of members with fresh perspectives and set of skills to help bring the group forward.
The group’s ethos has always been hard work. This manifests in the group's name “Baysulangpu” an anagram for Hiligaynon “Pulang Subay”. The art group, formed in 2001, has been in the Ilonggo community exhibiting artworks and participating in the community activities.
Due to the socioeconomic landscape of the city and of the time, the group was challenged by the fast churning of members from architecture students, to their friends to the millennial and Gen Z members. The direction of the group moving forward is presented in “Dagta-an” and so it becomes a symbolic passing of the torch to propel the art group forward in a world that is changing fast that the art landscape that seems to perpetually rebuild itself.
"Dagta-an" opens on August 10, 2024 at 6:00 PM.
