Ivan Acuña started his career in U.P. Diliman, switching between majors and working as a professional photographer doing product shoots for different brands notably Orocan. through his career in photography he was invited to the Saturday group where he branched out his connections in the art world and met Budji Layug a highly educated interior designer who presented Ivan's works in Dubai. Thats when it all snowballed into different collaborations for fashion bags, BMW, large scale paintings, billboards with brother's Burger, Diamond Hotel 16x16ft piece. His paintings appearing in local TV Telanovelas because the luxurious homes that were being rented out for taping were fitted wall-to-wall with Ivan Acuñas! He is now on his way to blurring the lines between his works and different products in the future
