This Skin of Light, a solo exhibition by Jose Patalinghug
This Skin of Light
is a new exhibition by artist-educator Jose Patalinghug, whose practice in oil and pastel explores portraiture, place, and perception. Faces and landscapes emerge briefly, reflecting impermanence and attentive observation.
'I’m not painting light as something external, but as something that settles onto the world—like a skin.'
