Insipiring New Generation
of Negros Artists
May 29, 2021
A strong offering of the Virtual Conference 2 are the island specials,
this one featured Negros Occidental. It was moderated by Negros
Occidental Island Coordinator Moreen Austria who tapped young
artists Brandon Braza and Bea Dolloso. Brandon Braza shared that
he had stayed committed to the arts ever since he was young, way
back when he was starting with calligraphy. He looks at art as an
outlet and a tool for self-expression. Art is not just about beauty, it’s
also about pain and sadness, this from an artist who has had 20 to
30 projects, mostly on body types. He aimed to be of help and work
at the same time. Bea Dolloso was exposed to visual arts during
childhood. She used doodle art and experimentation as a way to
focus on self-improvement. She expresses herself through art by
putting emotions to paper or artwork, whether it be music or visual
arts. She believes in the power of inspiring and motivating people,
especially the youth. She knows that it is important to have a sense
of generosity and the confidence to follow one’s personal taste.
