Vine Sculpture 2023 Chrome Metal finish in Graduated Blue Hues 51" x 39" (130 cm x 91 cm) One of the Philippines’ brightest emerging stars in architecture, interior design, and visual art, Carlo Calma has created a fascinating intersection between movement and stillness. A true visionary, this multidisciplinary artist is a painter, an architect, an interior and a fashion designer, and a ballet dancer, among many others. This 2023 Vine Sculpture is a perfect testament to Calma’s intersectionality. His talent as a sculptor and a dancer meet here, with the sculpture echoing the grace and fluidity of a ballet dance. In 2025, Calma made an international splash at the World Expo 2025 Osaka. Representing the Philippines, his Woven is an architectural and design marvel. Standing at a height of 12 meters and covering almost 700 square meters, Woven features a rattan facade made with thousands of real woven rattan tiles from Cebu. Aside from its stunning look, Woven is also the World Expo’s first-ever live performance facade, with performers from the Cultural Center of the Philippines showcasing their art through the pavilion’s facade at select times.
