Foto+Abstracsion: Mixed-media art exhibit by Sio Montera

CEBU, Philippines - Cebuano abstractionist Dennis "Sio" Montera mounted his first solo exhibit at the Bluewater Gallery six years ago. It was aptly named abstractSIOn, a colorful play of words branding his great passion for abstract art and the nickname that he is fondly called by his closest friends and associates.

Last July 25, Sio proudly brings his latest installment of his Bluewater Gallery series, foto+abstracSIOn3. Established as a serious abstract artist for more than a decade, this new exhibit allows him to expand to a new medium - photography as a design source for his abstracted imagery. He wants to experiment and use technology as a different means to convey his art and creative vision. Even as the medium evolves, the goal remains the same. That is, to evoke a viewer's aesthetic response by focusing on the effectivity of the visual organization rather than meaning.

The art exhibit, foto+abstractSIOn 3, will run until August 25, 2012.For further information please call the Bluewater Gallery at (032) 492 0100 local 512 or Erik Monsanto at mobile number (922) 836 1862..
