“Taga Aton” is a Hiligaynon term which is used as to claim a person to be native of a place. It is asserting that sense of acknowledging somebody to be part of the group. This exhibition showcases Ilonggo artists and it is telling us that these artworks and the artists whom made them are products of Iloilo itself.
