Gamit ang mga karton, ipinipinta ng magkapatid na Julia at Jheane Borja ng Cebu ang kulturang Pilipino na may dayuhang impluwensiya.

Panoorin ang kwentuhan kasama ang 'sister act' sa #CNNPHNewsroomWeekend: bit.ly/3Dgakwg Image
Julia Borja on using balikbayan boxes for Art Fair PH piece: It's a concept Jheane came up with to use local materials. Since there's a confusion in how we understand our cultural identity, she wanted it to reflect the foreign influences that came into it
Jheane Borja: Depicting foreign imagery within local materials. I thought would express that idea well
Jheane: We've been drawing since [we're] 12. I started with anime.

Julia says she followed her sister and developed their art into something more concrete
