One Man Show
The artist Quito Trenas with Nonoi Ybiernas.
Top ramp and commercial model turned third eye, Quito Gaona Treñas showed off his prowess in black and white photography at the RED Steakhouse and Gallery in Smallville owned by young entrepreneur Oskie Nava. Together with event organizer INVICTUS and David’s Tea House, Treñas unveiled his first one-man show “PROFILE” last July 20, 2009.
This talented De La Salle College of Saint Benilde graduate in Formal Photography, awed his guests with his artistic works that range from surrealism to avant-garde, giving the almost conservative people of the city something to ponder about. His works are such great conversational pieces that I highly recommend students, would-be shutter bugs and serious art lovers to view his works.
Seen in the opening night were Quito’s proud parents, Francis and Dr. Kristin Treñas and his equally charming brother Jay and sister Amanda. The guest of honor was his uncle the Mayor of Iloilo City Jerry Treñas. Also visible during the affair were the art aficionados of Iloilo and from the smart set who were feted with a splendid cocktails. Chanteuse Ashira Jane Borda and Sin-il Kang in strings provided the entertainment.
