Another Art Fight piece, this one's a bit of a mass attack! I grabbed every character from our little collab space crew project, Safe Haven, that I could find, and redrew them as the ending scene of Starlight Brigade by TWRP and Dan Avidan. Credits for characters under the cut. :)

Acknowledgment of Aboriginal History

This project is dedicated to respectfully acknowledging the profound and enduring history of the Aboriginal peoples. We recognize the significance of their narratives, traditions, and connection to the land, which are fundamental to Australia’s collective identity. In adherence to the protocols for using First Nations Cultural and Intellectual Property in the Arts1, I am committed to conducting our work with the utmost respect and sensitivity towards Aboriginal history and culture. My goal is to create a project that not only educates but also pays homage to the legacy and contributions of Aboriginal communities throughout history.

What is Arts, really?

This journey in the world of Arts started this First Semester of the Academic Year, 2019-2020, when I enrolled in my ARTS 1 class here in the University of the Philippines-Los Baños. 

With no personal background in the arts and with little artistic talent, I expected myself to be passive to no participation in the class. However as time progressed, I learned more about arts: its history and perspectives. How it evolves from one person to another. As our professor said, “If there are 33 students in this class, there are 33 different definitions of arts”. 

As such, I’ve done many projects where I saw my artistic ability, as unrefined as it may be, flourish. Some of these involve painting a feeling with no defined form or shape, the usage of words and language in depicting an image or scenario, called ekphrasis, the tableau where our painted masks reflecting a certain virtue of ours were used, and the infamous creative presentation on what theatre is. All of these challenged my artistic side of my brain to resurrect and manifest in my artworks, both individually or with my groupmates. Now after a semester in studying Arts, you may ask me, what is arts for you? My answer is this: it is the expression of every emotion and situation in the human experience. It is the depiction of ideologies and beliefs. And most importantly, it is a reflection of the creation of the universe in which the human mind is the center.

Paano nga ba?

Bilang isang kolehiyala, malaking bahagi ng aking oras sa paaralan ay ginugugol ko sa pagpapakadalubhasa sa aking napiling mayor na larangan. Ngunit, upang mas mahubog pa ang aking sarili, napili kong kumuha ng kursong pumapatungkol sa kritikal na pananaw patungkol sa mga sining sa ating bansa.

Ang iba-ibang sikat na mga produkto ng sining -- mga pinta, musika, sayaw at iba pa -- ay maaring nagtatago ng tunay na mensahe. Ang mga nakasanayan o salinlahing mensahe ng mga ito ay maaaring nanggaling mismo sa naglikha o nagmula sa iba-ibang kaisipan.  

Ang pagkakaroon ng sariling interpretasyon at pagsasama ng emosyon at kaalaman sa isang likhang sining ay maaaring gamitin upang mas mapatibay ang likha at mapalawig ang maaabot nito.

Sa pag-aaral ng kursong Arts 1: Critical Perspectives in Arts, mas mapapalalim nito ang kaalaman, pagkakaintindi sa mga isyung panlipunan at masining na paglikha.

ELITES IN THE ARTS

The elite class has taken over most aspects on human life in the country. These people have exploited every possible resource there probably is. Once a person has completely divulged himself in the field of arts for monetary validation, he probably knows what the target market is – being a core art dealer to the people sitting on top of their ivory towers, the elite class. Nevertheless, not only do these people diminish the essence of art, but also prioritize the lavish lifestyle in exchange for literally anything, no matter what cost.

The Marcoses, but more specifically, Imelda Marcos, approved the plan to build the infamous Manila Film Center. This goes to show how much the Marcos family exhibits their power during the Ferdinand Marcos era just to satisfy the edifice complex of Imelda. Having the desire to remain on top, the former first lady had no doubts about speed-running the construction of the Manila Film Center which she had envisioned as an equal rival of Cannes, which is known for its film festival until now. The construction of this building has become too costly and risky especially for the workers involved. This meant more workers, more shifts, and longer hours. It was not until a major accident happened that the difficulty of this project was seen. The accident included the collapse of a scaffold and less than 200 construction workers fallen into the wet cement. Imelda ordered the construction team to continue the operation and just cover the fallen bodies with cement for the construction to still push through and meet the deadline, regardless of what happened. Art was not only Imelda’s forte, but the former dictator himself too, used this as propaganda. His goal was to represent and showcase their love for the arts and culture which led to him building the Cultural Center of the Philippines, National Museum, and Philippine High School for the Arts. A certain piece of art circulated during his term which involved Ferdinand Marcos and his wife representing Malakas at Maganda, which is known to be a Philippine legend and the origin of mankind. They both looked at themselves as the sort of authority that withholds their power for the country to see them as legendary Filipinos. This artwork was immensely seen as a deceitful propaganda that can eradicate the unlawful and inhumane Marcos regime truth and replace it as its exact opposite – the Marcos regime as a heavenly and peaceful point in the Philippines. Art has meant everything for FEM and his family, and this reflects on the country’s present perspective on them which is still running on a positive note. What they have done for the Philippines’ love of art has been nothing but destruction, contrary to their “purpose”, because nothing came up from it aside from their own personal satisfaction.

For the Ayalas, art is a commitment especially to the Filipino community. The Ayala Foundation has been one of the key foundations that promotes the awareness of Philippine history through preservation of art and culture such as through the Ayala Museum and the Art Fair Philippines. However grand their promotion of art is, certain issues arise when it comes to the Ayala Land sector of their conglomerate. An example of this Ayala Land issue is the land-grabbing that were often protested against the Ayalas last 2014. The development involved in the land-grabbing incident conversion of the Hacienda Dolores property into their so-called “Alvierra: The Next Nuvali” in collaboration with the LLL Holdings Inc. (Leonio Land) whereas farmer-leaders were the victims of extra-judicial killings and the violation on their farmer rights. Yulo and Ayala landowners are being pointed out to be the minds behind the attacks on the farmers located in Hacienda Yulo, Calamba, Laguna. This simply shows that there is a lack of land reform and farmer protection programs in the country which benefits the landowners as land disputes are most likely to be on the side of the elite since they hold all the power and money to resolve all the cases at hand. This conflict might also be related to the injuries of 4 farmers from the same area where threats of demolition are always the latest news. These people have no power whatsoever to try and fight against these real estate giants as their power of voice do not affect the decisions of the elite. However, this issue does not only revolve around the Ayala and Yulo families as it involves the lack of a better justice system for the poorer side of the country and the absence of a genuine land reform. Power and justice are proven to be biased which also proves that the country is not for the masses and for the general good even in the slightest bit especially when it comes to territorial issues and even in art.

The Lorenzos are famous for their businesses which are more focused on the food and restaurant industry, like Del Monte Philippines and the infamous Lapanday Foods Corporation. Farmers and banana workers from the Hijo plantation area in Madaum, Tagum City are in consistent struggle with the corporation for two years before they have reclaimed the areas that are rightfully theirs to begin with. Not only did the problem affect the land possession, but also, lives were taken from the banana workers which then includes the sugar workers from Hacienda Luisita in Tarlac. Another issue regarding the Lorenzos is the burning of the Lapanday Food Corporation manufacturing plants located in Davao City last 2017 that resulted in the dispossession and unemployment of hundreds of employees. That same year, a protest in the office of Lapanday Foods Corporation was done due to the numerous land grabbing cases connected to the corporation. Included in this protest, is the formation of a union that calls for the better treatment of the employees and the securing of a better work environment and compensation. Even when there was an agreement, the workers’ demands were not entirely met. According to the National Network of Agrarian Reform Advocates, the Lorenzos have had a wide array of landholdings and accumulated wealth by land grabbing in peasant and Indigenous areas and exploiting the agricultural workers. The oligarchs, however, brainwashed these farmers and farmworkers that they are the current stockholders of the company they work for, when in fact the lands are still on the hands of the Lorenzos while the workers are still endlessly exploited. Their passion for art is a way to drift off the existence of the issues with regards to the workers and their way to invalidate their effect on the minority leaders. It is a hypocritical move for the Lorenzos to use art as their personal propaganda and benefit for them to be seen as a pro-labor and pro-poor corporation and clan.

Joselito Campos Jr. is the current chairman and CEO of the NutriAsia Group of Companies which a major food conglomerate in the country and is one of the richest Filipinos. He is also the current chairman of the Metropolitan Museum of Manila (MET) and the Bonifacio Arts Foundation Inc. (BAFI). The MET is originally built to be a venue of international art exhibitions but is then revised to be a contemporary and modern art collection along with the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas. On the other hand, the NutriAsia Group of Companies has been involved in many controversies which includes contractualization, insufficient salaries, and forced underpaid overtime that therefore led to many strikes and protests by the union members. Their demands for better employee treatment were somehow viewed as violent which made this group of companies resort to attack the strikers with the help of the Philippine National Police and security guards from the company by using a bulldozer and physical violence last 2019. Cases were filed against these strikers but there were reports of sexual harassment that was done by the police officers in charge of the arrests. However, NutriAsia’s intense labor violation and human rights violation are still overlooked as it still has the upper hand in managing the issues thrown against it. The arrests made to these workers were not terminated even when no court order was presented but the government did not take any action with regards to the case of the arrested strikers. All these information about the 2019 strike conflict was highly similar to the 2018 strike in Bulacan whereas people were harmed and were treated like animals just to avoid being hurt by the police and security guards. NutriAsia does not have any reason to be called a safe working environment with all these proven allegations against them and all these people continuously being violated within and outside the workplace. Recalling these enumerated incidents, there were wide calls for boycotting the company’s products even the essentials by introducing alternative resources and personally, I also participated in this boycott movement which until now, my family does.

Dr. Joven Cuanang is a known neurologist, and an art patron and collector. He is also known to be the physician who ordered the ailments and illnesses that prevented the rightful arrest of Imelda Marcos. This is possibly a result of personal conflict of interest (art patronage) just for the former first lady to be saved from jail time. Cuanang is also know as the owner of the Pinto Art Museum located in Antipolo City which is home to Filipino art galleries and lush gardens. A former art curator, Riel Jaramillo Hilario, for the Pinto Art Museum had written about the exhibition space and the artists treatment along with their works. He received complaints from the artists where they felt undervalued by the management. Hilario stated in his written post that some of the museum’s vision was misaligned and was not on the side of the artists. Also, according to him, plenty of the artworks are being mistreated and left alone to be infested by insects, dust, and unwanted elements. The management seems to have defended themselves by putting the blame on natural causes like cats causing a fiberglass sculpture to fall then break. Pinto Art Museum management avoids holding themselves accountable for damages done on the artworks just to also avoid spending money on the needed reparation fees. He has also stated that the museum was quite unfair when it comes to artists’ compensation for the sake of their profitability. On the other hand, for the conflict of interest between Cuanang and Marcos, it is possible that their shared love of art and love of profit have made the physician biased in releasing public statements which is truly unfair to begin with. If there is an appropriate doctor that is also of fair judgment, it must have been someone without prior connections to the patient. The reports of Imelda being ill enough to avoid prison has definitely paved the way of what the masses’ current perspective on the Marcoses is.
