The world is full of unjust inequalities. One particular issue I see in my daily life is the vast gap between social classes in the Philippines. This piece depicts the three classes of high, middle, and lower, and the strong disparities between them. In fact, the lower class design was inspired by Philippine slums and squatter areas around me. All three houses are covered in newspapers to signify how our attention is focused towards other issues, whilst ignoring how urgent this matter really is.
