Art In Island to Launch Newest "Paintings in Motion" Attraction Soon

Wazzup Pilipinas!

Art In Island, known for its 3D and interactive paintings, is a 3D art museum and the biggest of its kind in Asia. With over a hundred 3D paintings painted in the walls and floor, you can freely touch, be creative with your poses and take pictures as much as you want. The paintings become real like you are actually in them. But how about if these paintings can now move?

This September 2017, Art In Island brings media art through projection mapping and media facade art combined here in the Philippines for the very first time! This newest attraction will not be on a limted time but will be added as one of the museum’s attractions.

Be ready to discover beautiful visuals recreated with light and art combined! With the use of projection mapping, Art In Island creates exciting projection mapped performances which are carefully wrapped around Art In Island’s 30-feet tall panoramic 3D paintings. Projection mapping is actually a development in projection technology used to turn common objects into interactive displays. Along with Art In Island’s interactive 3D paintings, we combine interactive projections and create a new and exciting fantasy world only here in Art In Island.

Wazzup Pilipinas!

DC’s ‘Cyborg’ smashes his way into AsiaPOP Comicon Manila 2017 as part of the second batch of guest artists to be seen by their fans live in Manila.

So better hold on to your plasma cannons as DC’s newest fighter makes his way to the Philippine stage!

AsiaPOP Comicon Manila 2017 (APCC Manila) unveils American actor Ray Fisher, aka Cyborg, from Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice and the highly anticipated film Justice League. Fisher will be the first Hollywood celebrity headliner to take on the biggest pop culture event in the country. APCC Manila 2017 is slated from August 25 to 27 at the SMX Convention Center in Pasay City.

Victor Stone, aka Cyborg, is a former college athlete turned cybernetic warrior through the mysterious power of an otherworldly living machine known as a Mother Box. Cyborg is the latest addition to DC's Justice League, an organization of Earth's greatest superheroes dedicated to protecting the world from its greatest threats.

“We have always believed in bringing unique talent and content to AsiaPOP Comicon Manila and this year is no different as we are bringing one of the brightest talents and potential future superstar, Ray Fisher who is reprising the role of Cyborg in the forthcoming blockbuster Justice League and will continue to be key superhero character within DC Universe” said Abdulla Mahmood, Director, Marketing and International Business, Al Ahli Holding Group. “Die-hard DC fans who were craving for a superhero talent have their wishes fulfilled as they will get an opportunity to interact with Ray Fisher as Cyborg”.

In 2020, Warner Bros. is said to release a solo Cyborg film, where Fisher will reprise his role as Victor Stone/Cyborg. Fisher’s performance as Cyborg marks the actor’s big screen debut. His past performances include a brief appearance in the period television drama, The Astronaut Wives Club, and various theater productions across the United States, including his portrayal of Muhammad Ali in the New York Theatre Workshop's Off-Broadway production of Fetch Clay, Make Man.
