About the Artist
Chiqui Rodriguez is an artist, innovative research consultant, and seasoned executive whose career spans over three decades, from her artistic roots in Angono, Philippines, to global art scenes including Berlin, Florence, and New York. Granddaughter of realist artist Perdigon Vocalan, her abstract paintings are renowned for their emotionally uplifting qualities and consistent appreciation in value since 2000.
Her significant artistic milestones include sold-out international exhibitions ("Sparkling Radiance in the Midst of Still Air" series), features in Saatchi Art Showdown, a commission by Philippine construction giant ("Quintessence of Faith"), and a successful auction at Salcedo Auctions. Her diverse portfolio, encompassing painting, drawing, and design, is highly sought after by a global clientele of collectors, investors, and diplomatic communities.
Leveraging extensive executive experience from Fortune 100 companies Chiqui now applies her Doctor of Communication (University of the Philippines) and Executive Education (Asian Institute of Management) to her work as a research consultant.
A Fellow of the Royal Society of the Arts (London) and a Steward of the Council for Inclusive Capitalism (New York), Chiqui is a prominent voice recognized by Saatchi Art and the National Commission for Culture and the Arts, embodying a philosophy where dedication and mindfulness intersect with impactful creative and business endeavors. Her philosophy is clear: dedication and mindfulness are the keys to impactful creative endeavors. This perspective is the driving force behind her work, including the creation of KREATTIV.co, a platform designed to empower the next generation of creative entrepreneurs.
