Within his work, Pio Abad considers cultural loss and colonial histories, often reflecting on his upbringing in the Philippines and his parents' role in the anti-dictatorship struggle. Featuring drawing, etchings and sculptures, the work highlights overlooked histories. In this film, Abad explores power, storytelling and how jewellery can be seductive. As he says, 'we're all magpies, drawn to these shiny objects.' Subscribe for weekly films: http://goo.gl/X1ZnEl
