Liwanag, 2022
Stainless Steel, Tracing Paper, Capiz Shell
Liwanag (meaning 'light,' 'clarity,' or 'illumination'), echoes the spirit of Filipino tradition through the iconic parol, a lantern originating from Spanish colonization in the Philippines. Departing from its traditional form, Liwanag reimagines the classic five-pointed star with the national flag's star, welded in steel and finished in gold spraypaint. Capiz shell is incorporated into the parol's tassels, and the glow emanates from an LED light instead of the traditional candle.
