“At Conrad Manila, we recognize the invaluable contributions of women, in our workplace and beyond. This Women’s Month, we are proud to celebrate their achievements and the vital roles that they play in shaping our industry and communities, Throughout March, we honor their dedication and impact with meaningful experiences that reflect our appreciation,” shares Fabio Berto, general manager of Conrad Manila.

Kara Pangilinan 

 
Conrad Manila presents a solo exhibit entitled “Woman in Progress” by female artist Kara Pangilinan. This is the 34th edition of the hotel’s Of Art and Wine series, featuring 29 artworks that highlight the transitions in her art journey and how she herself is a work in progress, like everyone else.
 
Kara Pangilinan’s art is rooted in human emotions and experiences, which is conveyed through the lines and patterns of her linescapes, lace, leaves, and ladies. This latest collection showcases intricately detailed art pieces that evoke a sense of being a work in progress—an intentional expression by the artist, inviting viewers into her creative journey.

The artist notes, “We are meant to continually evolve. Through my paintings, I intend to emphasize that we can embrace every version of ourselves and be the multi-faceted, dynamic beings we are all meant to be. Every stroke and every line on each piece allowed me to breathe a little bit deeper and feel a little bit more at peace, and I hope that is what guests and viewers feel when they see the paintings.”
