Eight talented local artists led by renowned painter Fernando Sena came together to celebrate creativity and the indomitable Filipino spirit in an exhibit hosted by 13 UBAY in Quezon City. Sena, who is best known for his still life renderings of the ubiquitous pan de sal, is joined by Bernardo Maac, Mario Villanueva, Angelito Lepalma, Agnes Batallones, Jojo Garcia, Dennis Tresvalles, and Joval Kisinamal in a special, month-long art exhibit at the restaurant titled Embracing Filipino Food and Art.
Guests at the restaurant can appreciate the artworks that range from still lifes, to street scenes, and abstracts, all done in vivid colors and in different forms and techniques that capture the eye and imagination.
The food and ambience at 13 UBAYT make the perfect backdrop for this artistic endeavour, as the menu is composed of food that is familiar to the Filipino palate, with bestsellers such as Beef Pares, Chicken Inasal and SinaingnaTulingan, in a setting that is homey and approachable.
