Vanee

Vanee is a contemporary visual artist celebrated for her evocative use of color and texture, blending elements of urban landscape and cultural heritage into immersive mixed-media compositions. Born and raised in the heart of Manila, Vanee draws inspiration from bustling city environments, the rhythms of daily life, and the enduring spirit of her community. Her artistic journey began in childhood, nurtured by a family of artisans and storytellers, and later flourished through formal study in fine arts at the University of the Philippines.

Vanee’s work explores themes of memory, displacement, and belonging, often incorporating found objects and text into layered canvases as a way to bridge past and present. Her pieces have been featured in numerous exhibitions both locally and internationally, and she continues to collaborate with grassroots art collectives in Southeast Asia. Vanee’s dynamic practice reflects her commitment to social engagement, inviting viewers to reimagine the spaces they inhabit and the narratives they carry.
