Resumo

The Bongor, also called Kalinga beadwork, is treated as an ongoing process of art-making, as well as a continuing art form in which an individual chooses specific types of beads according to their social status and personal taste. It was discovered that the modern Bongor necklaces carry not only the value and meaning that is contributed by the Kalinga artists but also that contributed by the wearer. Bongor, therefore, is a place where citizens' identities are cared for in ways that relate to each citizen's personal narrative and cultural heritage.
