This artwork shows the mix of tradition and modern life, and how it can change who we are inside.

Inspired by the Masskara festival, through the festival's iconic smiling masks, it symbolizes resilience and positivity, earning Bacolod City its famous nickname. Taking place every October, the festival invites everyone to celebrate life, dance, and indulge in the city's infectious cheer, reminiscent of Brazil's Rio Carnival. Our mask is created using cardboard boxes, newspapers, and acrylic paint to put on our mask. Our work represents how technology is slowly integrating in our lives through the mask.

Covering most of its design with the colour blue, it portrays serenity, stability, inspiration, and wisdom. The smiling masks are a declaration of the city’s resilience and jubilant spirit, with the festival a testament to the local people’s ability to turn adversity into a source of pride and joy. The masks are more than just accessories; they are an art form that tells a story with each handcrafted detail.

The pamaypay, or fan, is often used during the Sinulog Festival by dancers and devotees. It helps show graceful movements and keeps people cool during long parades. For our sculpture, we made a 2-foot fan using papier-mâché, which we created by layering paper and glue to form the shape. We designed one side using abstract art inspired by artists like Theo van Doesburg and Paul Klee, with colorful shapes and lines. The other side uses optical art (Op Art) with black-and-white patterns that create a moving effect when viewed. We chose these styles to give the fan a modern and creative look while still showing respect for tradition. We also used simple layering and outlining techniques to make the main parts stand out. Through this artwork, we want to show that even in a changing world, traditions like Sinulog still bring people together.
