Las Paginas de Historia (Pages of History) is a modern art installation located in the lobby of the Admiral hotel in Manila. The pages display a variety of Baybayin symbols, which is one of the ancient Filipino writing systems, flying up towards a stained glass mural depicting a group of Filipinos working together to transport a bahay kubo (bamboo house) to a new location. This is the Filipino concept of "Kapwa", which is difficult to describe, but it basically embodies a people's sense of a shared identity by belonging to a community with a common history. The interpretation of the installation is that the shared history of Filipinos (represented by the pages of Baybayin) is what contributes to the foundational structure of Kapwa (the pages flying up into the mural). If you're in Manila check out the installation and big shout out to Nino (@ Manila.gent on IG) for introducing me to this beautiful piece of art. #philippines #filipino #history #art
