Viverra Coffee is proud to host an exhibition of watercolour wallhangings painted on Jusi (Philippine silk) by Philippine Artist Marissa Gonzalez for the exhibition entitled “Nostalgia Revisited".

Viverra Coffee
Rue du Môle 22
1201 Geneva

The exhibition runs 3-31 May 2019.

Marissa Gonzalez was born in the Philippines and lives in Switzerland. While she continues to explore painting techniques with different mediums, her preference is still painting on Jusi, Philippine silk. She has exhibited in collective shows since 1995 in others countries in Europe and also in the USA.

Jusi is a word for "raw silk" and is the term used for the unique fabric woven in the Philippines from silk and pineapple fibers. When embroidered, Jusi is the material used for Philippine formal wear for both men and women. By using it as her medium, Marissa Gonzalez pays tribute to Philippine materia prima and explores other non-traditional uses for Jusi.
