Gregory Halili is a Filipino-born artist based in Manila. He specializes in contemporary sculpture and painting mainly having found coral and shells as his main raw materials.
I started to create these massive works filled with miniature paintings and objects. I’m a painter, but I learned to create sculptures, to weld, use cutting and power tools, and drill into stones and metals…My method and thinking process is still painterly, creating the works as layers, constructing and deconstructing them, and figuring out the forms and gestures as I create.
