LIKHA: A STORY OF CRAFTSMEN
A short film commissioned by Forestier and the Philippine Department of Trade and Industry. We travelled to 3 different provinces to explore how bamboo, abaca, and metal are transformed through a design collaboration with Forestier, a design firm based in Paris. Usually, these items are defined as handicrafts, an important cottage industry in the Philippines that brings jobs to many families and communities.
