In this episode, we sit down with four inspiring artists from across the Philippines—Arvi Delos Reyes, Keziah Kitsche, Kevin Sembrano, and Rudz Ducena—as we shine a light on their creative journeys leading up to Spotlight: The Exhibit by Novice

From navigating the algorithm and staying relevant, to embracing authenticity in a content-driven culture, we talk about the pressures, the passions, and the purpose behind our work. We also unpack the location dilemma in the Philippines—how geography can limit art-centric opportunities, and what it means to thrive outside major art hubs.

Most importantly, we explore the tightrope walk between creating art you love and the very real need to pay the bills. It's a raw and inspiring conversation on building a creative life in the midst of noise, limitations, and endless scrolling.
