Camille dela Rosa is a featured artist of the Miroir Magazine Inner Vision edition

Q: How long have you been an artist? Please tell us a little about your chosen medium.

A: My early works were inspired by the painting style of my late dad, the noted Ibarra Dela Rosa. I inherited his penchant for strong color combination in rendering my landscapes, flowers and trees.

Miroir: What inspired VALT?

Kat Ferneyhough: There are several alternative fashion events occurring around the globe, and upon deciding to move to the west coast, we found it surprising that a city as creative and unique as Vancouver didn’t already have one. After years of operating as an event coordinator for art exhibitions, mini music festivals, and fashion shows myself, plus Kat Kozak’s experience documenting and managing events as well, it seemed only natural to develop one here together.

Kat Kozak: Ultimately, Kat Ferneyhough shared her vision for the initial concept of VALT with me, and I was honoured to be asked to be a part of it, both as a friend and fellow creative. more » “VALT2016 – 5 Year Anniversary! Exclusive interview with Kat Kozak and Kat Ferneyhough”
