This is my valentine to Manila: a collage of mental pictures and random memories from childhood summers spent playing outside. From “saranggolas” (kites) to “banderitas” (buntings) to “sampayan” (clotheslines) that kept our eyes trained on skies and the tangle of houses and cables – there is poetry and inspiration from the city’s gritty surroundings. This patchwork of oddities is a tapestry woven by eternal optimists and dreamers.
Provenance is actually a “(mini-)series within a series” called Mindscapes.
