Holiday light tilt

THE CULTURAL Center of the Philippines and OMNI (Yatai Int’l Corp.) will hold the Holiday Light Installation Competition for its second run in 2017. The competition calls for all interested artists, crafts people, designers, and engineers, jointly or severally, to submit a proposal for an outdoor site-specific art installation at the CCP. The competition aims to find an attractive and inspiring lighting solution to illuminate the CCP Liwasang Asean Park for the 2017 holiday season, using traditional Filipino lantern-making technology. The installation must be innovative and unique, and must reflect the theme of “Paskong Pinoy (Filipino Christmas).” The mechanics and criteria of the competition may be found at the CCP Web site ( www.culturalcenter.gov.ph). The competition is open to everyone over 18 years of age. Applications must be submitted via e-mail by 5 p.m. of Aug. 29. Proposals will be evaluated based on the following: originality and innovativeness, feasibility of the implementation, ties to the theme and to both the CCP and Omni’s institutional mandates, appropriateness to the surroundings and eco-friendliness. Omni, through the CCP, shall provide a grant of P550,000 to produce the winning proposal.
