by Ina Louise Manto | February 07, 2023

Heart’s day is right around the corner. Take this as a sign to finally invite your crushie or make plans to surprise your partner! Sure, candle-lit dinners and restaurants with a view are an easy way to celebrate the holiday, but if you’re looking for a unique spot, check out the latest addition at Art in Island in Cubao:

Art in Island: The Media Square

You may already know Art in Island as the country’s largest mixed media museum. A few years ago, it became famous for its 3D immersive art that’s a sure hit for folks who love taking photos, dubbing it the country’s “selfie museum”. Recently, they’ve added a new section in the museum that will take your breath away.

Ever wonder what it’s like to step foot inside an artwork? The new Art in Island has interactive rooms featuring surreal art displayed through animated projections and light displays. Combined with ambient music, these rooms are truly mesmerizing.

Of course, every corner of these rooms is IG-worthy. These gateways remind us of teamLab Planets TOKYO’s artwork spaces! While you save up for your Japan getaway, these Art in Island interactive rooms will give the same experience.

Even if you don’t have a date, take yourself on a solo date and live in the main character vibes.
