Makati\u2019s art scene offers plenty to explore, but for those looking for something beyond traditional paintings and familiar gallery formats, Vinyl on Vinyl<\/strong> presents a different side of contemporary Philippine art<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Established in 2009<\/strong>, Vinyl on Vinyl was created to give artists a space to showcase and explore works outside conventional art forms. What began as an effort to bring greater attention to what was then considered underground culture has grown into a gallery known for championing experimentation, emerging genres, and artists willing to test the boundaries of what art can be.<\/p>\n

Its name traces back to the gallery\u2019s beginnings in vinyl records and art toys<\/strong>, while its musical roots continue to surface through occasional sound art included in its programming.<\/p>\n

Over the years, Vinyl on Vinyl has developed a distinctive roster of artistic practices spanning pop surrealism, after-modernism, post-internet art, kinetic art, underground art, and street art<\/strong>, along with creative movements that may not yet fit neatly into a category.<\/p>\n

Visitors may encounter artworks created through unconventional approaches, from damaged and repurposed canvases and manipulated video and photography to soft sculptures, large-scale origami forms, and even social media used as performance art. This openness to experimentation has allowed the gallery to become a platform where artists can take risks, explore new techniques, and introduce audiences to different ways of experiencing art.<\/p>\n
