Went out the other night with colleagues and had cocktails at MCafe. We were greeted by this amazing installation of handwoven flowers of plastic in between wood, which is right in front of the Ayala Museum, fronting MCafe. Kinda resembles the handwoven plastic bags that Charito Planas promoted some years back when she was Vice Mayor of Quezon City.
This exhibit, (according to the huge backdrop tarpaulin) is entitled "DASMANILA: Recycling Garbage, Restoring Heritage", which is put up to educate everyone re Pasig River and the effects of solid waste on it. Notice how Pasig River is getting a lot of attention of late!
Floral installation is up until the 21st of this month.

This is how the plastic flower installation looks like in the morning! |
