The Ark (2021)

As part of Cast but One Shadow
September 24, 2021–January 15, 2022
University of the Philippines, Vargas Museum
co-curated by Carlos Quijon, Jr. and Kathleen Ditzig

"A newly commissioned outdoor installation by architect and visual artist Isola Tong elaborates on these historical conjunctures using the Philippines as an entry point. Tong’s research mobilizes the human-animal hybrid tropes of the 1972 Blaxploitation film Twilight Men and looks at the Marcoses’ importation of safari animals from Kenya to create the Calauit Safari Park in Palawan, displacing its indigenous peoples." - UP Vargas Museum
