Art Walk by Ayala Land plays hosts to arts and artists, creating an eco-system where art plays a vital role in shaping communities and how cities are experienced thru a series of installations, performances and creative activations. The 3rd Ayala Art Walk unfolds across the city- from Makati Central Business District to Circuit Makati, inviting repeated visits and discovery.
The Art Walk runs from January 30 to February 8, and throughout Art Month this February for select art installations and activations. Conceived as a complement to Art Fair Philippines, the Art Walk reflects Ayala Land's long-held belief that art plays a significant role in one's life and our community.
While Art Fair Philippines anchors the contemporary art conversation, the Art Walk extends that experience beyond the fair venue and into the city itself- into places where people already walk, gather, shop, commute and spend time.
This year, the Art Walk unfolds across a diverse range of public spaces from Ayala Museum, One Ayala Terminal, the Paseo pedestrian underpass, Greenbelt, Glorietta, Ayala Triangle Gardens, Ayala Malls Circuit, and the future site of the contemporary arts center in Circuit Makati. From museums and malls to parks, pedestrian pathways and a transport hub, the range of locations reflects a clear idea: art belongs everywhere, not only in formal or expected settings.
By intentionally spanning from the Makati CBD to Circuit Makati, the Art Walk creates a cultural thread that runs across the city- linking districts and communities through shared creative experiences.
At its core, the Art Walk is a platform for artists- particularly Filipino artists- who are presented side by side with international artists within the same public spaces. This positioning places local talent in a global creative context and affirms the strength of contemporary Philippine art on an international stage.
For the whole month of February, audiences can encounter not only visual art, but also performing arts, installations and a range of art-related activations that bring different forms of creative expression into public space.
This year, Art Walk will have a more intentional approach to experience design. Rather than encountering artworks as isolated moments, audiences are invited to experience the Art Walk as one connected journey- making discovery easier, more intuitive and more inviting.
The overall experience design and visual system of the Art Walk was created by artist and designer Dan Matutina. As an artist himself, Matutina approached the design from the perspective of how art is encountered, interpreted and felt- shaped by how artists hope their work will be discovered, and how audiences naturally move, pause and connect with a piece. His work establishes a clear visual language and identity across districts, helping visitors navigate the Art Walk with confidence.
