Sometimes My Accent Slips Out by Bhen Alan

“Sometimes My Accent Slips Out” is a solo exhibition by Bhen Alan, mentored by Jade Yumang with curatorial guidance from Jon Santos. The show builds upon the artist’s ongoing investigation of the banig, an indigenous form of mat weaving in the Philippines, paralleling this practice with the sociolinguistic impact of migration and personal transformation. Through these explorations, Alan unravels the complicated legacies we navigate in an increasingly globalized world.
