Protegeri is brought to you by OFF! curated by Ricco Renzo Art Services for the benefit of Ayala Foundation.

Protegeri imagines how waste fits in our ecology. Paper and plastic flowers pervade the collection, not as mere embellishment, but as symbols of Filipino ingenuity. There is no novelty in the concept nor in the techniques and imagery. But in an industry driven by trends and spectacle, it's honest work that stands out.
