TIUNAY





‘T I U N A Y’
Florence Cinco
July 8-18, 2011
NCCA Gallery
633 Gen. Luna St.
Intramuros, Manila

‘Coming home’ is an inevitable event in one’s journey. A traveller may wander far away, discover the unknown, conquer trials and achieve success; but he will always find himself tracing back his footstep to where he came from– to his “tiunay”.

TIUNAY is a word which means “roots” in Waray. This is also the title of Florence Cinco’s upcoming exhibit at the NCCA Gallery. Tiunay, according to the artist encapsulates the essence of all the artworks in this exhibit, which is the return of the Filipino race to its great roots, the Maharlikan race.

He likens the experience of the modern Filipino to a journey. He believes that he is now being called upon to uphold his own identity and abandon the foreign culture he has assumed as his own. TIUNAY is a call for the Filipino to take the first step back to his home – to his roots.

TIUNAY is the 13th solo exhibition of Florence Cinco whose artworks are known for his advocacy in promoting the richness of our culture and root race; environmental conservation; spirituality; and in embracing the simple lifestyle. He hails from Tinambacan Sur, Calbayog City, Western Samar. Cinco, a Fine Arts graduate at the University of San Carlos in Cebu City, is a missionary artist. His own journey in life and in perfecting his craft has led him to believe that art should not be pursued for art’s sake alone. Art, according to him should also be a vessel for service and spirituality. To date, Cinco continues to flourish as he reaps success one after the other in prestigious art competitions both here and abroad while doing his missionary work in the art circle.

TIUNAY is on view at the NCCA Gallery from July 8- 18, 2011. Gallery Hours, Monday-Friday 9:00 AM – 5:00PM; For this exhibition we are open Saturdays, Sundays and other Holidays. NCCA Gallery is located at 633 Gen. Luna St. Intramuros Manila. For enquiries you may contact Mimi Santos or Ethel Buluran at Tel. Number: 527-2192 loc. 512.
