Pay It Forward With Art
Conceptualized and developed by art enthusiasts from Ateneo BSME Class of 1995, ARTxFAME is an online art gallery established to help raise funds for Ateneo scholars. 100% of the profits from ARTxFAME will be donated to the FAME scholarship fund.
FAME, short for the Federation of Ateneo Management Engineers, is the alumni organization of the Management Engineering program of Ateneo de Manila University.
The Management Engineering program is 51 years old this year and recognized as one of the most successful and prestigious academic programs in the Philippines. ARTxFAME was launched on November 28, 2020 during the first ever Global Virtual M.E. Homecoming attended by over 360 alumni worldwide.
Bea Policarpio is a Filipina artist who spills colors where words fail.
With heavy-handed impasto strokes deftly applied, Policarpio’s art often represents dreamlike mindscapes painted in desire to give shape to the subconscious. To make the intangible, tangible.
In her abstract expressionist style, the emerging artist aspires to create visual objects that draw viewers into an evolving story about human nature and its place in the cosmos. Discovering imagination as a function of empathy, she paints with a delicate balance of buoyancy and depth that has fascinated audiences.
“My artistic ventures serve as my way of keeping hope alive. I believe creativity is a way of life. Whether we consciously claim this power, we are always creating our lives. We color our days with our moods. We heal in layers applied over time. We dance to the rhythm of our routine. Each of us is a walking work in progress and a masterpiece at the same time. We are born in broad strokes and refined in the beauty of minute details. And so our art becomes us. Art is how I pay attention to the seasons which grip us. It is a visual assignment of colors to the energies that envelope us. It is staring into the abyss and choosing to play with light anyway.
Because what are we all here for if not to awaken each other? If not to soothe, excite, delight, and inspire the creative spirit that lives in all? Expression is survival.” - Bea Policarpio
