Galerie Joaquin | A Garden Within

“A Garden Within” is Hayara Ocampo-Tejido's latest solo exhibit at Galerie Joaquin's newest location. This is her first for this new location at Opus Mall opened in August 2025. It’s a low-key exhibit that was revealed on September 12th: a new set of paintings from Haraya that continues to evolve like her real garden at home. The new pieces occupy whatever space Galerie Joaquin has to offer; it certainly makes the gallery vibrant with the chosen style and colours Haraya has put together in these ensemble pieces, and they certainly make someone’s wall something to look at when you explore her latest works.

Galerie Joaquin | Arcoiris

Whenever a new exhibit has opened it must bring good vibes and a sense of interest that invites not just only those who appreciate art, but also random people from all walks of life. For Jomike Tejido, it must be second-hand to his ever-growing work to express his thoughts and to communicate through art. It’s not just those who have known him for so long, but also those who discovered his work in the art gallery. Another solo art exhibit for Jomike in the books, but this one doesn’t just stop at one part of the gallery featuring his work. But the entire gallery has dedicated every space of it featuring all his paintings and his wooden art toys that have become part of the show for almost a year now and it continues to be impressive even internationally.

Galerie Stephanie | Flourish

There are so many contemporary artists today that you might have overlooked some of the up-and-coming talents. You may find inspiration in their works when you randomly come across them while you are in a local shopping centre or just casually notice many people gathering to see what was the commotion over something colourful and inviting. This is where Kim Borja “Flourish” in her latest solo art show for Galerie Stephanie, which just had a reception early this evening taking you to a special place that is warm and bright with full of glow emanating from the optimistic look at her works as one of the latest exhibits for the gallery despite the weather the poured in the city.

Galerie Stephanie | Yutori

“Yutori” is a Japanese word or term “a state of sufficiency and ease” that is also the title of Mr. S’ first-ever solo exhibition at the newly relocated Galerie Stephanie, which opened less than a week ago. The profound artwork of Mr. S continues to evolve with the artist's inspiration stemming from his travels in Japan and Korea. This solo show culminates not only the opening of the gallery’s new location but also introduces new works from Mr. S who has not had his very own exhibition since 2016. It was a welcome sight to see all the work put together in bringing a fresh take on his ever-evolving work from his everyday life and personal travels inspired by these masterful artworks that you see in this show.

Galerie Joaquin | Dragon Boats

“Dragon Boats” is the latest solo art show featuring Jomike Tejido, and this will be something really special for being the 20th time he goes out and brought the best of his craft from the paintings to each accompanying “art toy” that is one of one that is also having very intricate details with layers of storytelling in each creation. It is one of Jomike’s massive creations culminating in decades of studying art through his own past works at the same time parallels being a children’s book author. His process and evolution are something to be admired and an absolute inspiration is beyond just being a contemporary artist. If you thought his past works were already grand, this one certainly strives to push the limits beyond what most already knew.

Galerie Stephanie | Olympus

“Olympus” is a word or a place used in the Greek Mythology. In some contexts it’s a mountain in Greece or home of the gods. It can define to someone ‘who has pinnacle of success,” which is the title of the solo show for Jomike Tejido starting the new year right with refreshing concepts that he continues to build and challenge himself. For this year, Jomike mixes up with his refreshing art style and adding installations to round up a narrative that convey that’s something far from the Greek Mythology or mount Olympus. But it speaks volumes to how he put together this show that is like pushing himself to make it on top of mountain of challenges in taking you to his journey as an ever evolving contemporary artist.
