Seemingly unappreciated are those structures who are trimmed down into rubbles by a process of demolition - involving a non-emotional participation of people, who are given authority to put an end to the existence of a functional construction. These structures will be replaced, and then eventually be forgotten.

The objective of this project is to commemorate these structures for the meaning and purpose they have served for the people and the community: to give imporatnce and celebrate their existence; to make an attempt in immortalizing the memory of them (for the people who are personally attached to them, at least); and to acknowledge the wholeness of their being.

this is the reason and first of the project. i was simply assigned to paint all aged rocks white when my uncle told me it will soon be demolished because the government bought the land to make it a passage for all the visitors every nov.1.

i thought it was here even before i exist and everything will be lost just because someone bought the land, thus this project...

Celebrate Filipino Love and Pride at the Global Pinoy Bazaar 2010

Yabang Pinoy invites you to celebrate 100% Filipino Love and Pride this Christmas at the Global Pinoy Bazaar 2010, on November 6-7, 2010 from 10AM to 10PM at the Rockwell Tent.

Global Pinoy Bazaar is organized by Yabang Pinoy, the pioneering Filipino Pride movement, whose advocates and volunteers aim to inspire and encourage Filipinos to believe in being a Filipino, in fellow Filipinos, as well as to patronize Filipino ideas, concepts, products and services.

Sinag de Leon-Amado, a paper craft artist, PAPELAPELAP, shares: “I have been a longtime fan of Yabang Pinoy (ever since it launched its first product, the abaca bracelet) and I really admire its work in promoting Filipino culture. The Global Pinoy Bazaar is the perfect venue to showcase Pinoy creativity and ingenuity through great and exciting products, crafts, and ideas. I went to last year's Global Pinoy Bazaar as a shopper, and now I'm even more excited to be one of its merchants.”

“The Global Pinoy Bazaar showcases our products alongside world-class Filipino products that proudly shout to bazaar guests that ‘Hey! These creative, quality products are a result of Filipino ingenuity and talent’,” shares Jen Horn of Punchdrunk Panda.
