2020 Gawad CCP Para Sa Sining: Kenneth Cobonpue, Design and Allied Arts
The Gawad CCP para sa Sining 2020 for Design and Allied Arts is bestowed upon Kenneth Cobonpue. As an industrial designer, Kenneth Cobonpue has produced a substantial body of work recognized for excellence locally and internationally. His furniture designs are modernist in geometry and function, but distinctive in their innovative use of native materials of rattan, bamboo, wood, and fiber. These he put together using traditional modes of work that emphasize manual craftsmanship of weaving, binding, and construction, all of which are derived from Cebuano and Filipino cultural heritage in object making. His artistry and creativity in adapting native materials and techniques culled from a legacy of traditional furniture-making, all of which address issues of sustainability, as well as creating opportunities for local labor and economies.
