Matagal nang nahilig sa pagpipinta ang artist mula sa Adelaide na si Peter Francisco. Ngayon, nakasentro ang kanyang mga obra sa kulturang Pinoy at pagkaing Pinoy. Inspirasyon din niya ang ina na may makabuluhang impluwensya sa kanyang pagiging artist.

KEY POINTS
  • Ang pagkahilig ni Peter sa pagpinta ay nahikayat ng kanyang ina na isang self-taught artist. Sumali na din siya sa mga local at pambansang art competition.
  • Kabilang ang kanyang mga obra sa "Sinaing: An art exhibition on Filipino food and diaspora" na ginaganap ngayon sa Adelaide, South Australia hanggang ika-18 ng Mayo 2024.
  • Para kay Peter, ang pagpinta ng mga pagkaing Pinoy ay hindi lamang isang malikhaing pagsisikap, ngunit ito ay pagpapahayag ng kanyang pagmamahal sa yumaong ina na humubog sa kanyang pagkabata dahil sa kanyang kagalingan sa pagluluto.
"Mostly I paint out of my feelings. Kung ano ang na fe-feel ko yung time na yun. Nung pandemic, namiss ko ang Pinas dahil hindi ako makauwi. I look to inspirations from the Philippines. I was feeling very homesick."
Peter Francisco art
Peter Francisco cultivated his passion for painting since childhood.
"I feel validation when someone buys my painting. My objective was never to make money out of my art. For me, my art is my baby. I make time for it, I allot funds to it and I commit to it. Pero pag-nabebenta siya ang sarap ng feeling kasi parang feeling mo someone thought that your painting is valuable enough to buy."
Peter Francisco
"I painted the bagnet kare-kare because this is my mum's favourite food. She passed away last March and when I came back to Australia, I wanted to honour and give tribute to her in my exhibition."
