Custom Words / Pakisabi

Each piece begins as a custom-crafted expression in Tagalog, English, or Taglish—shaped through memory, tone, and cultural meaning.

Mga salitang hindi lang binabasa, kundi iniingatan, ipinapasa, at isinasabuhay.
Mga salitang sinusulat para sa tiyak na tao, tiyak na sandali, at tiyak na alaala.
