From bottle caps and old playing cards to junk food wrappers and used broom sticks, Lucilo Sagayno’s medium of doing art seems limitless.

Jojo, as his peers call him, uses these articles to promote art through recycled materials in “Pilit Pintal: A Lucilo M. Sagayno Exhibit,” which is open for public viewing from Nov. 5 to Nov. 25 at the Bluewater Gallery in Maribago Bluewater Beach Resort, Mactan Island, Cebu.

Pilit Pintal (Junk mosaic and paint, in the local dialect) is a style Jojo Sagayno has been known for.

Jojo is a Fine Arts graduate from the University of the Philippines (UP) and has served the National Commission for Culture and the Arts (NCCA) for four years as a representative for the Visayas in the Committee on Visual Arts.

At present he holds the top position in the Visayas Island Visual Artists (VIVA) Association and is one of the key organizers of the upcoming VIVA Exhibit-Conference (VIVA Ex-Con) this year.

Sagayno is a faculty member of the Fine Arts Department of the University of San Carlos.
