Introducing an all-new Quaderno that brings together original artworks of Filipino visual artists Fran Alvarez, Anika Loquite, Harry Monzon, and Anthony Palomo. In this new collection, the artists explored and used their own lens to interpret the concept of yakap (embrace)—a seemingly simple gesture that can lead to various translations that represent the sentiments of today. 

From the most literal sense to a more abstract investigation, the artists freely unpacked the realities behind a simple embrace to create sixteen artworks that take us into a stroll along memories, dreams, and unspoken realities of life.

Express your own explorations of yakap with Quaderno. Artful and well-made, each Quaderno collection features four limited-edition notebooks designed in collaboration with the artist, created for the thinkers of tomorrow. Quaderno is a space to support Philippine art, probe ideas, and embrace the creative you.

Features:

  • Dimensions: 6.02″ × 7.91″ (15.3 × 20.1 cm)
  • Cover: Digitally printed with artwork by the artist
  • Type: Sewn bound to keep each notebook secure
  • Quantity: Four 64-page notebooks per set (dotted, blank, grid, and lined)
  • Paper: 100 GSM cream textured paper (can be used for calligraphy writing, watercolor painting, sketching, or writing and journaling)
  • Scan & Read: Scan the QR code at the back of each notebook to get to know the artist

About Anthony Palomo

Anthony Palomo is a celebrated Filipino postwar and contemporary painter. He earned his Bachelor of Fine Arts major in Painting at the University of the Philippines in Diliman in 1992 and started exhibiting his works in public that same year.

He won several national art competitions, including the grand prize at the 24th Shell National Students Art Competition 1991 (watercolor category), the grand prize at the 11th Metrobank National Painting Competition 1994 (watercolor category), and a citation as a finalist at the Philip Morris Philippine Art Awards 1999.

In his Quaderno collection, Palomo capitalizes on his affinity for composition to create dreamscapes derived from literal narratives, personal observations, and abstract interpretations of the word yakap.
