Geraldine Javier's First US Solo Exhibition at Silverlens New York
State of the Nations, the inaugural solo exhibition in the U.S. by esteemed Philippine artist Geraldine Javier, will be hosted by Silverlens New York. This showcase will run from September 10 to October 24, 2026, with an opening reception scheduled for September 10 from 6 to 8 PM. Javier, who now refers to herself as an "artist-farmer," resides on a 2.3-hectare (5.7-acre) farm where she collects leaves, flowers, and bark for her eco-printing work. Over the last four years, her focus on eco-printing has left her with little time for traditional painting. This technique involves transferring the pigments of natural materials onto paper or fabric, and Javier aims for viewers to appreciate nature while recognizing environmental degradation.
