It was the success of [re]frame Manilla that lead to the current project '[e]merge' run under the banner of Omnium Outreach: Philippines.
Rick Bennett has facilitated the '[e]merge' project, working alongside a group of fourth year design students from the College of Fine Arts, Sydney. The students have designed a range of embroidered products that aim to further commercial business opportunities for the collective of women embroiderers (PML) in Lumban. This site allows you to see the latest News, Design Development and behind the scenes work of the [e]merge project.
We hope you explore and appreciate the work of the PML Embroiders and join Omnium in their support of skilled artisans in the Philippines.
