Timothy Manalo

He views his work as an ongoing investigation into the visual languages that are built, transformed, and used to anchor people’s experiences with the physical world, impacting memory, identity, home, and movement.
Timothy Manalo has exhibited work at Canadian Sculpture Centre, Toronto; Franconia Sculpture Park, Minnesota; and Tufts University Art Galleries, Massachusetts, among others.

Tamen Pérez
