ArtFairPH 2016 (a photodump)
I went to the ArtFairPH last February to satisfy my ravenous appetite for art, good company and pretentious wine.

The coercive and oppressive framework of organized religions is one of them; the muddied relationship of the State and of the Church is another (the problem is still mostly in favor of the Church). Democracy in the Philippines and the right to accessible information are…
