From July to December 2010, Green Papaya Art Projects will observe the Philippines’ typhoon months with a series of collaborations between two artists of similar genres investigating social sculptural projects based on context of time/place, relational works and encounters.

The Ephemera of Disposable Goods, a program of curator-in-resident Lian Ladia, aims to make available to featured artists Green Papaya’s space and bar hours (Wednesday-Friday-Saturday from 6PM-12midnight) as an open studio facility where artists and public can engage in discussions and debates as the artists go through their process of constructions and deconstructions every session. Remnants of the day’s work will remain on view at the show window (when the space is closed) leading to a documentary installation at the end of each project.

Catch The Crocogator: Ferdz Valencia + Vic Balanon opening this July 28-August 13. Ferdz Valencia and Vic Balanon will create a spatio-temporal imprint called The Crocogator with paints, wood scraps and found objects.
