Visual Artist and Designer
MIKES is a Visual Artist and Designer based in Manila, Philippines. Weaving myth, memory, and meaning into every canvas and design. Her work is a quiet ritual, each piece a tapestry of iconographies, allegories and symbolisms that speaks where words fall short. Inspired by folk art, hermetic mysticism, and alchemical imagery, she crafts luminous worlds where the ancient and the divine converge. With vibrant colors and layered form, MIKES transforms fleeting moments into timeless symbols, inviting viewers to step into a realm where the invisible is made visible and the everyday re-enchanted.
