Zambales artist creates masterpieces using bleach stains
A self-taught artist from San Narciso, Zambales, has gained attention for his unconventional and unique art form: bleach art. According to Kuya Kim's report on '24 Oras' Friday, Ronald Cabrillos discovered his art style after a laundry mishap in 2022. 'Tinry ko po siya na ituloy na lang 'yung mantsa niya. Nag-invent ako at sinimulan kong gawan ng design. 'Yung first design ko is 'yung sa anime na 'Naruto,'' Ronald said. He applies the bleach with a paintbrush, sometimes mixing it with water to achieve varying levels of opacity. Ronald uploaded his artworks online and captured the attention of netizens. 'Hindi ko po in-expect na nag-viral 'yung video at umabot siya ng siguro around 20 million views na po siya ngayon. Simula po nung nag-viral 'yung video, may mga nagpapagawa na po ng mga commissions sa akin,' Ronald said. 'Malaking tulong po siya financially. Doon po ako kumukuha ng pang-gastos namin sa pangaraw-araw,' he said. Among his recent artworks is one that featured Kuya Kim, which took Ronald a day to complete. Per Kuya Kim, the scientific principle behind bleach art lies in bleach being an oxidizing agent. When bleach is applied to fabric, it oxidizes the chemical bonds of the dye molecules. This process damages the chromophores, which are the specific parts of the dye responsible for imparting color to the fabric. Consequently, the fabric's color changes or disappears, creating the desired artistic effect. —Carby Rose Basina/CDC, GMA Integrated News
