Not entirely an ecosystem of art for art’s sake. We are ART FOR THE ARTISTS’ SAKE.

Odangputik Art Space (OAS), since it opened its doors to the public in 2023, has been working on the progress of Philippine pottery and traditional arts through interdisciplinary means. With art, design, science, research, and art education as the primary tools, OAS stayed committed to provide mutual care and mentorship to its resident artists and interns. Its core program, Pagtanom Internship to Apprenticeship Program, is rooted from its mission to simultaneously preserve and develop Philippine traditional arts, especially Philippine pottery, without discounting the need for an artist’s economic growth. 

Navigating the profession of the arts, design, and cultural work, we are a group of Filipinos with valued experience in ceramics, industrial design, studio arts, arts management, financial strategy, Philippine studies, and visual art curation. By supporting our paid pottery workshops and handmade ceramics, we continue to strengthen our place as an independently funded art and creative hub in Quezon City, changing the narrative of the “struggling artist” – opening more gift boxes of enthusiasm for the youth to dream of their spot in the arts.
