Florence Cinco will have an exhibit


Dingit by Florence Cinco
"Dingkit", a Waray-Waray word which means "connected". The artworks in this exhibit are inspired by the artist's personal advocacy of promoting the "Maharlika" roots with the conviction that his works will help revive the original identity of the "Maharkila" people - warrior yet deeply spiritual and significantly in union with nature. These important characteristics of our race which are the ultimate connection to our identity, have long been buried by the influx of foreign cultures / influences and have resulted in serous consequences - spiritually, physically, psychologically and economically. The artist believes that if each and every servant of art will dedicate his works to revive and preserve our very own culture and (root) race, our country will heal from its long suffering. It also aims to inspire Calbayogonons everywhere to keep that connection to the place where they were born.
