MB: "images that revolve around the Filipino way of life"

This quote is from the 6th paragraph from the article, "Imelda Cajipe-Andaya: A Filipina’s Social Engagement" in today's issue of the Manila Bulletin:

"This longing for national identity led Endaya to engulf herself in images that revolve around the Filipino way of life and traditions. Apart from the nationalist perspective that Endaya incorporates into her work, she also burdens herself with the responsibility of pursuing the advancement of feminine identity in her arts. “I draw inspiration from my day to day experience and the history of women before me. Women need voices and it needs to be projected, it needs to be heard,” Endaya stresses."
