Lukob Art Exhibit
"Lukob" is loosely translated into English as "dark spirit possession." In Filipino folklore, it refers to a supernatural entity's way to control one’s mind and body, turning the individual into something sinister. Two of the most well-known iterations of these entities are the Aswang and Manananggal. For some of our artists, Lukob also resonates as an existential question, or as a commentary on more socially relevant fears—such as the rising burden of utility bills.
