Pintor Kulapol, Sagay’s leading art group, opened Kochecha and Nature Encounter XI, a three-day exhibit for the love of art, music, and artistic celebrations, on February 15 to 17 at Bangga Nuklar in Old Sagay City.

Nuklar Alvarado, who spearheaded the activity, proudly displayed the talented undertakings of Sagaynon artists as well as other Negrense guests in the creative community. The event showcased multiple expressions of art, of camaraderie, and of music; as well as leading on to give thanks for the season of good harvest and positive undertakings with their Kochecha vibe for the year.

Kochecha, “Panahon Sang Maayong Pangwaon,” is how Sagaynon artists collaborate with each other to give thanks to a great harvest towards life and to create a bigger purpose of leading people to love and uplift their authenticity towards their creative endeavors, especially in music and the arts.

Every movement has always been offered in the inspiration of Maestro Nunelucio “Nune” Alvarado, one of the pillars of art in Negros, who started to pave ways and gave voice to Sagaynon artists worldwide.

Through him, art has been more courageous and more transparent in the lives of these people.

These artists fight for a positive impact toward the community using their influence. This is to show diversity, friendship, and enriching experiences that can lead to successful collaborations.

Pintor Kulapol artists consist of Nuklar Alvarado, Burog Alvarado, Lucio Alvarado, Bogie Alvarado, Art Marin, Sandy Coberos, Gerom Booc, Arvin Hervias, Christopher Fernandez, Leo Carton, Tanya Cordero, and the late Tilok Lamis.
