Kampo Sining is an art group consisting mainly of artists from Tarlac. The group serves as a platform for its artists to grow through exhibits, art sessions, workshops, and art talks.
“Dito ko nahanap yung belongness as an artist. Ito yung community na pwedeng mag-foster sa young talents. Kampo Sining will continue to grow. Sulong Kampo Sining,” Mark Nylle Baun, Director of the group, said.
Meanwhile, Lois Quinocho, one of the exhibitors, shared the vision behind their entry for the collection.
