The Art of Agustina Diez Sierra
Amazed by the Tiboli tribe, located in Lake Cebu, Philippines and hearing
that the only way they can weave is if they dream, this stunning artwork
is unique with special meaning and character. Following a meeting
with Lang Dulay, a national living treasure, Dulay is the oldest and one
of the last Dreamweavers left in the tribe. She is passing on tradition
to her granddaughter, so that their gift of art continues to live on for
future generations. “Art to me is the power to let go and create bridges
that connects moments and feelings. It is the freedom to merge various
art forms from every culture I visit. It is being constantly open to new
ways of understanding and interpreting,” says Agustina Diez Sierra.
