After a first trip in December 2023 to discover the Philippines and the local scene, we published a special Manila issue of star wax - available for free in English PDF version here -  a second trip took place at the end of 2024 & beginning of 2025. What is more deep than painting canvases outdoors in January with sunny day and a breathtaking view? Snic aka coshmar DJ, star wax artistic director created a series of canvases and a 8-minute poetic film in Subic Bay was born: ‘Painting at the Veranda by snic’. Don’t miss it, video player below. The view from the 4th floor veranda of the Tiara Building is absolutely fantastic, and all the scenes in the film are enhanced by the powerful natural light. Thank to the one and only Larraine Dela Rosa without whom this film could not have been made! Salamat Po.
