Artist's Comments

september 26, 2009, the tropical storm Ondoy (international name "Ketsana") struck here in the philippines.

possessions and homes and lives were lost. hundred thousands stranded. floods were up to the roofs. one city was nearly 100% submerged.

the floods kept me stranded in a studio for about 5 hours with no food. worse yet, my older brother was stranded in a faraway mall for 30 hours, with the floods up to the second floor, ankle deep. it took a boat to bring him home.

what's important now is to help out and donate to the victims of the flood who have lost everything. thanks all.

i like how you did this! compare it to bagyong milenyo, they're almost the same! i like how the color of the balloon went with the water and the buildings of manila. btw how are you guys doing? just wondering even though we really don't know each other. :)

DON'T FORGET HOW WE WERE PLANNING TO EAT YOU.

But seriously, I think that experience made us bond more and appreciate each other's company. Thank you so much for coming with me, I'm glad I have a friend like you. :)
