Roberto Martin Sing launches his first Solo Exhibit at Gateway Gallery

Artist and educator Roberto Martin Sing will launch his official career as an artist with his first solo exhibition “Cool Waters.” The Cool Waters series is rooted in the philosophy that art can and should function as a source of Contemplative Solace. For Sing, whose professional life as an educator took place amidst the demanding environment of Metro Manila, the recurring subject of the freshwater stream represents a magical and necessary Escapism. 

This series by Sing consciously rejects artistic provocation, dedicating itself instead to the singular mission of invoking peace, healing, and positive emotional refuge from the pressures of modern life through art. 

This mission of emotional nourishment aligns with the core of Aestheticism—the value of "art for art's sake"—but shifts its focus from pure sensation to pure tranquility. The goal is an experience of deep repose, a concept that echoes the contemplative value of art described by figures like Arthur Schopenhauer, who saw aesthetic experience as a temporary escape from the constant striving and suffering of the will.

Beyond its restorative purpose, the series is a ten-year journal of artistic discipline and growth. The paintings serve as a living record of the artist’s academic philosophy: a practice built upon the rigorous, sustained study of the Old Masters' methods. With each painting, the artist actively integrates new knowledge, harnessing different mediums and techniques to demonstrate a commitment to the continuous evolution and mastery of craft.

The Cool Waters series ultimately reflects a deep-seated, threefold purpose: First, to pay reverence to the history of painting by diligently building upon the foundational techniques of admired masters and mentors; second, to deliver a clear message of positive emotional solace to every viewer; and third, to fulfill a personal commitment to the cultivation of ability akin to the Parable of the Talents.

Cool Waters will have its Artist’s Reception on October 18, 2025, at 5 pm. The exhibit will run until October 25, 2025 at the Studio of Gateway Gallery.
