Also featured in the exhibit titled “A Calado
Legacy: A Mother and Daughter Exhibit” are the works of the grand dame’s daughter,
Marcy Dans Lee, who is herself a highly respected artist and illustrator.
This is the first time the works of the highly

of Hong Kong-based Filipino artists from across a wide spectrum of backgrounds
and professions.

| A long list of artists with HK connection will be featured in the back-to-back exhibit |
“The Visual Narratives” will feature the works of
professional artists, those by a talented group of overseas Filipino workers
called “Guhit Kulay,” young Filipinos born to expatriate parents, and
altruistic Filipinos who paint to raise funds for charity.
Also part of the collection are the works of former Hong
Kong OFW turned professional photo journalist Xyza Cruz Bacani.
