Now on its second edition, the ArtFairPH/Residencies is a significant addition to the programming of one of the largest and anticipated fairs in the country. This year, the output from the five residency programs culminates in a special presentation at The Link in Makati City, from Feb. 17 to 19.

Through the residency programs, the artists received funding to pursue a project in five sites of residencies across the country, namely: Manila Observatory in Quezon City, Linangan Art Residency in Cavite, Emerging Islands in La Union, Butanding Barrio in Palawan, and Orange Project in Bacolod City. The different residency programs allowed the artists to develop a particular project that may be specific to the place, community-based, or using archives and collected data.

In an interview with CNN Philippines Life, some of the artists shared details about their respective works that are now up for viewing at the fair.
