The Catriona Gray Rice Paddy Art is the newest attraction at Philippine Rice Research Institute or PhilRice in Science City of Muñoz, Nueva Ecija

This work of arts was planted by almost 50 staff and agriculturists of PhilRice using the 3D anamorphosis principle and they made it sure that the rice paddy has a strong resemblance to Catriona Gray's face.
