Bea Valdes Presents Bedtime Stories @ SLab



Designer Bea Valdes presents Bedtime Stories, an exhibit of sculptures of animals adorned with crystals and semi-precious stones. Inspired by fairy tales, these whimsical creatures bring us into a darkened landscape where the sinister lurk with the enchanted. Fable and folklore, as we find all throughout the history of oral literature, were often embellished with exaggerated or gruesome details as stories were passed on from one person to the next. Women, who sat in groups as they worked on tasks such as knitting and spinning, often recounted such tales of gore.

Valdes, a graduate of the University of the Philippines and the Inchbald School in London, is a much awarded and published designer often seen on the pages of Vogue, W and Harpers. Known to be a staunch supporter of local artisans and their craft, Valdes received the Katha Award for Creative Excellence in Accessory Design in 2006.

Bedtime Stories by Bea Valdes runs from November 28, 2008 to January 3, 2009 at SLab. The artist will be present at the opening on Friday, Nov.28, 6-9 pm.

Visit SLab at 2320 Pasong Tamo Extension, Makati City. For more information, call 8160044/ 09052650873, email manage@silverlensphoto.com or visit www.silverlensphoto.com / slab.silverlensphoto.com.
