“In the Philippines, we cannot have the luxury
of frivolity but as artists we have to make art that expresses our concerns,
needs, and aspirations. Otherwise, part of our deepest self will be
irretrievably lost and art itself will become empty of meaning.”
Santiago Bose
(July 25, 1949 -- December 3, 2002)
