are some of the photographs that will be shown in the "Wandering
Soul" a solo exhibit by Kleyr de la Cruz from April 30 to May 3
at The Podium’s lounge Area. A joint project of the Australian
Embassy in Manila and The Podium, it is a photo journal of De la
Cruz‘s travels in Australia.
De la Cruz, a photographer, artist and events
planner is affiliated with the ALPHA Camera Club and the
Federation of Philippine Photographers Foundation (FPPF). She
also runs her own company, Fine Details Events Coordinator.
When she made her first trip to Australia in
1998 to attend a cousin’s wedding, she began a personal travel
documentary and a journal of photographs with pictures of
places, people, scenic spots and cultural events.
In Wandering Soul, Australia is seen through her eyes and the
images she captures celebrate the country’s beauty and
diversity. She takes viewers on a visual journey beyond New
South Wales to the Twelve Apostles at the Great Ocean Road, to
the play of colors in Melbourne, the beaches of the Gold Coast,
and the seat of government in Canberra.
