Isa Lorenzo, 003

From now until November, Lorenzo will be exhibiting her work and that of her father Luis “Moro” Lorenzo at the Silverlens gallery. The exhibit called “Isa Lorenzo, 003” will feature darkroom collages of photographs from the 1950s taken by the elder Lorenzo to the present taken by the younger. Lorenzo has a master of arts in media science and photography from the New School University-Parsons School of Design in New York, obtained in 2004. She came back to Manila that same year and established Silverlens Gallery, the only gallery in the Philippines dedicated to photography.

In January-March 2003, Lorenzo received the Philippine Government Visiting Artist award. Her works had been featured at the Museum of Modern Art in New York, at the UNESCO House in Paris, and at the Cultural Center of the Philippines, Manila. Very much an analog shooter, she has always loved working in the dark room processing films and printing. Lorenzo has no specialty subject. She says, “I was fortunate enough to meet people who felt the same way...who lived and breathed photography. Those who did their own work, who managed to get hired to do personal work as opposed to having to listen to an art director or stylist.”
