This photograph forms part of Houses That Sugar Built, Siobhan Doran’s project with writer Gina Consing McAdam exploring historic Philippine houses connected to the sugar economy. Architecture becomes a way into the social histories that shaped these places. The image invites attention to the relationship between an interior’s visible presence and the lives, labour and changing circumstances behind it.
