34" x 27", Oil and Acrylic on Canvas, 2021 The painting portrays how Filipino American migrant workers are habitually ignored, stereotyped negatively with poverty or treated with indifference; yet, in their own country they are heralded, honored and recognized as "Bagong Bayani" or "New Heroes". This is in stark contrast to the underground "METRO Station scene", wherein the PH Sun's rays shine a light on the figures, creating a departure point for Philippine art and culture
