You are all invited- PORTRAITS OF ASIA AT
OWG
One Workshop Gallery proudly presents a photo exhibit by Manuel Librodo Portraits of
Asia. The exhibit will run from July 1 to 31, 2006. Cocktails at 630pm Saturday July 1.
Manuel Librodo, an experimental photographer, captures vivid images thru the lens of
his camera.
Starting out as a hobbyist, Librodo's decision on taking photography seriously has
brought him to be published internationally on publications such as Digital
Photography (August and September 2005 issues) and What Digital Camera
(December 2005), and as well as winning several awards.
A traveler, his pictures feature different locations across Asia, each one detailing
various interests. From people he interacts daily, to places that have struck a chord of
beauty within him, Librodo captures emotion in each shot. With portrait photography
as his forte, Librodo instinctively connects with his pictures.
He does not consider himself as a professional photographer. His lifetime goal is to
come up with his own coffee-table book.
The exhibit will feature works consisting of locations such as Bali, Boracay, and China,
and as well portraits of individuals encountered on Librodo's travels. Each individual
connects to Librodo in a certain way - a relative, a model, a stranger in another land,
all caught in a picture, as a means of sharing what he sees as beauty. In a sense, as
how he defines an effective image, lyrical. Manny endeavors to capture not just the
human face but also the soul, not just the expression but also the innermost
sentiments of his subjects.
