From torn paper or in Filipino "Galing sa Pinilas na Papel" is a conceptual art combined with poetry, storytelling, music & illustration that aims to unravel five unique stories, sharing the magic of the world’s greatest lessons: Life, death, love, art and money.
In this collection, poems are presented through cinematic visual storytelling with English text. This encapsulates the emotion and passion the story wants to convey. Every shot, every verse is a gateway to something more than what it seems to be. The goal is to bring the listener to another realm of experience while offering a perspective through the lens of a poet filmmaker.
