GENEVE

We designed and constructed one of the 13 pieces for ‘Villes et champs’, a public art and garden festival in Genève focusing on co-habitation of the urban and the natural. The site, a busy highway overpass, is out-of-tune with the idea of the landscape as a peaceful natural haven. Instead, the installation emphasizes the infrastructural character of the site and tries to prove that even these locations of traffic and car dealers – despite their anonymous and generic character that is seemingly devoid of any artistic value – can play an important role in the production of food and plants.

A closed system of transparent tubes clinging onto the bridge is used for the cultivation of algae, which grows exclusively on sunlight and CO2; two products abundantly present on the site. The organisms can be used to filter air as combustible biomass, or even as raw material for different cosmetic and alimentary products. A steel structure, supporting all the secondary equipment such as pumps, filters, and solar panels, functions as a marker for the quickly passing traffic and provides explanations on a more detailed level for pedestrians and cyclists. The pulsating movement of the algae signals practices of the future; the harvesting of goods in the dense environment of a metropolis, the conservation of green space, and the reinterpretation of existing infrastructures.

Did you know that are only six National Historical Markers installed by the National Historical Commission of the Philippines in Davao Region? These are buildings, monuments and special location that have historical significance not only in the region but the country as a whole.

FOUR OF THE SIX NATIONAL HISTORICAL SITES IN DAVAO REGION

DAVAO PENAL COLONY
Panabo City
Inscribed with National Historical Marker in 1956

The Davao Penal Colony is the first penal settlement founded and organized under Filipino administration. The settlement, which originally had an area of approximately 30,000 hectares in the districts of Panabo and Tagum, Davao del Norte, was formally established on January 21, 1932.

On December 20, 1941, the Japanese Imperial Forces attacked Davao and the colony was among the establishments taken over by the invading army. It was the biggest prison establishment in the country which was used by the Japanese invading army as their imperial garrison during World War II. After the liberation of the Philippines, a great deal of rebuilding and repair of the Davao Penal Colony had to be done because the war had almost completely destroyed the colony.

In 1956, Davao Penal Colony was the first historical site annotated by the National Historical Comminission of the Philippines as National Cultural Property inscribed with a national historical marker.

Ohta Kyuzaburu along with his compatriots were instrumental in bringing about the agricultural and economic development in the Davao Province.

THE MONUMENT OF ANDRES BONIFACIO
Toril, Davao City
Inscribed with National Historical Marker in 2013

Andres Bonifacio, the Father of Philippine Revolution

In celebration of the 150^th birth anniversary of the Father of Philippine Revolution, the National Historical Commission of the Philippines turned over two bronze life-size monuments of Andres Bonifacio to the two most important cities in the country – one in Cebu City and another one in Davao City.

The monument which was installed inside Toril Park in Toril, Davao City last December 4, 2013 as our country’s tribute to the Father of Philippine Revolution.

Andres Bonifacio founded and served as supreme leader of the Katipunan movement which sought the independence of the Philippines from the Spanish colonial rule. He was executed on May 10, 1897, along with his two brothers, in the mountains of Maragondon, Cavite. They were convicted of sedition and treason against the Aguinaldo government.

The essence of the installation of Bonifacio’s Monument outside of Manila is the nation’s tribute to Ka Andes who loved our country deeply and offered his life to build our nation. The monument which was installed inside Toril Park in Toril, Davao City last December 4, 2013 was unveiled by NHCP officials together with the Davao City Mayor Rodrigo Duterte and artist Juan Sajid Imao who made the statue.
