Bhen Alan: Why Does My Adobo Taste Different?

The fifth iteration of the Art Wall Project features textiles made by the Filipino-American artist Bhen Alan. Through the creation of a monumental banig, or a traditional Filipino handwoven mat made from plant fibers, Alan grapples with the traumas of immigration and explores how diasporic communities work to recover a lost idea of home.
