Description
Summary:KUALA Lumpur-based Manila-born artist, Anna Karina Jardin, is an advocate of art in public and cultural diplomacy. She sees the relevance of non-governmental agents and less formal groupings of citizens in diplomacy. They represent a broader range of actors in the promotion of national identity, culture and heritage. The communication of art is not only limited to aesthetics. It is a pragmatic tool to create an ambience in public diplomacy in projecting representations of policies. An example is the initiation of the Artdialogo Project in 2016 under the cultural diplomacy bilateral agreement of the Philippines and Malaysia in 2015.
