DescriptionBorn in the Philippines, Joey Mánlapaz has depicted changes to the DC cityscape with the eyes of an immigrant and a curiosity for architecture. Rather than focusing on the residents and tourists who often crowd the streets, Mánlapaz chooses a scene empty of pedestrians and traffic. Instead, this painting emphasizes the stark contrast between classical and modern architecture in the background, and the ubiquitous hot dog stand and parking meter in the foreground.
