I love Pop Art and Warhol. My spirit is so at home with how mundane and commonplace things are transformed into stunning art - bringing out the extra-ordinariness of ordinary stuff. Transformed a calendar of Warhol I bought in one of those memorable trips in Bangkok. If I remember it correctly, I bought it at Books Kinukuniya. Transformed the pop art icon's masterpieces into my kinda art - filling them up with more colors and textures. Doubled my irreverent shots with street vignettes while riding the bus along the Philippines' busiest thoroughfare - EDSA - and during transfers to another bus enroute to meet my artist-friends for an outreach performance in Macabebe. Finally, I soaked my film in bleach solution hoping and praying that it would not ruin the entire roll - just enough to create a lovely value-added effect from the experiment. I hope Warhol - wherever he is - wouldn't mind me taking his beautiful madness to a different place.
