NICCOLO JOSE ON HIS ART AND THE CONCEPT BEHIND AN ECO RESORT

Green Canyon is a haven where nature and art provide a sanctuary for the recreation, relaxation and renewal that makes it a premier tourist destination in the Philippines. Renowned for its artistic appeal in culture, painting, woodworks and landscape, wherever one journeys in this resort, the senses are stimulated with beauty and creative pursuits. Inspiration is lauded in the 29-hectare resort when considering the beautiful natural surroundings.

The main features of this resort focus on crafting enriching experiences for guest with the impressive collections of modern and contemporary art, art workshops, open-air activities, nutritional cuisine and leisure accommodations.

But perhaps the most unique feature of Green Canyon, isn’t the scenery, the luxurious amenities, organic gardens, studio furniture pieces or customized experience it can offer, but its artist behind each detailed woodwork Niccolo Jose.

Check out this interview:

“My aim is to bring back the emotion and appreciation for furniture as a freestanding art form—differentiate it from the pure mechanical pieces influenced by 20th century mass production and modernist furniture. Aged wood carries with it a history and each piece offers a narrative that ties in with the skill, craftsmanship and process that goes into shaping an individual piece of furniture,” he said, citing the works of George Nakashima and Sam Maloof as his inspirations.
