Born
and raised in the Philippines, Patti
came to the US in 1991 to pursue a
degree in Fine Arts. She graduated with
a BFA in 1994 from The School of the Art
Institute of Chicago. She chose not to
major in any particular medium because
there was so much to discover in this
new place! She took courses in Visual
Communication, Fashion Design, Painting,
and Sculpture. She graduated
well-rounded but, ironically, undecided
about what she really was.
Now, 15
years after graduating, motherhood,
unexpected tragedies, and epiphanies,
she has developed a style that is
collective, albeit mixed. She embraces
chance by using found materials and
playing with mistakes. She take risks in
paper manipulation, color mixing and
using new materials. It is an ode to the
DADA and anti-art movement that paved
the way to Abstract Expressionism and
for the post-modernists.
