Filipinos and the Japanese have something so profound in common—pottery.
LASTING FRIENDSHIP The Japanese Embassy’s deputy chief of mission, Yasushi Yamamoto, opens the exhibit of pottery that showcases a shared history between the Philippines and Japan
Filipino ceramicists Lanelle Abueva-Fernando, Pablo Capati III, and Jezzel Wee who were part of the exhibit all spent time in Japan as well. Abueva-Fernando trained in Hachijojima up to the late ’80s. She has since opened her own atelier in Antipolo where she combines her craft with a café. As a high school student in Kobe back in the ’80s, Capati was introduced to ceramics, which led to two decades of ceramic work.
In a statement, the museum shared that the relationship between Japan and the Philippines “is based on our shared humanity, forged in fire, cooled over the years by the winds of communication, and nurtured by the water of understanding. It is a friendship that has matured into one that is mutually beneficial, sustained, and today represented by these beautiful ceramic works made by loving hands.
It’s still not perfect, of course. I have a pretty long list of things that could be improved on. The presence of dog parks in public spaces, however, and the opening of lifestyle establishments for pet companions are things pet parents are truly thankful for. Maybe more expats who move to Manila will decide to bring their pets with them too.
