LG Philippines recently launched a unique partnership with the National Museum of Natural History through “Fragments,” a month-long digital art exhibit by Filipino motion graphics artist Isaiah Cacnio. The exhibit brings together art, technology, and heritage using LG OLED AI TVs to tell the story of the country’s geological and cultural identity.
Why it Matters: The exhibit highlights how technology can help preserve and present Filipino heritage in new and immersive ways. It also marks the first time a digital artist was featured in a solo show at the National Museum using advanced display systems.
Cacnio’s pieces—“Where Fire Begins,” “Stories in Stone,” and “What Breaks, Flows”—use mathematical formulas to create moving digital landscapes that reflect the country’s natural forces and emotional connections. His works were displayed across LG’s high-end OLED TVs, including the 77-inch OLED G5 and 65-inch OLED C5 models.
Visitors can see the exhibit at the Ayala Reception Hall of the National Museum of Natural History, where the visuals are enhanced by LG’s AI-powered display tech. Cacnio shared that even in fracture or separation, there is beauty and connection—a message echoed in the Philippines’ own story of resilience.
During the exhibit launch, LG Philippines also donated over PHP 500,000 worth of display equipment to the museum. These include LG StanbyME units, TVs, and monitors that will be used in various galleries to improve the visitor experience. The donation builds on LG’s previous support for the National Museum network since 2018.
LG Philippines Managing Director Nakhyun Seong emphasized the company’s commitment to education, culture, and innovation. He linked the exhibit to LG’s 12-year streak as the global leader in OLED TVs, and expressed pride in helping Filipinos connect more deeply with their history and environment.
LG’s Product Director for Media Solutions, Yongwoo Park, explained the concept of “Affectionate Intelligence”—AI that understands and adapts to human needs. The goal, he said, is to turn smart TVs into tools for meaningful experiences, not just entertainment.
Museum Director-General Jeremy Barns welcomed LG’s support, saying it allows the museum to evolve in the digital age. He noted that modern museums must go beyond static displays and use technology to actively engage audiences. He praised LG for helping the museum move toward immersive storytelling and inclusive programming.
As part of the launch, LG also introduced the latest lineup of its AI TVs to media and guests. Product Manager Natasha Morano highlighted the TVs’ voice recognition features, while Marketing Communications Manager AG Constantino talked about the customizable home screen and content suggestions.
The event was also attended by local personalities, including Robi Domingo, Bela Padilla, Mika Reyes, and LA Tenorio, who each shared how LG OLED and QNED TVs enhance their home and work experiences. Domingo praised the AI Picture Pro technology for its clarity, Padilla highlighted the TVs’ gaming performance, Reyes liked the multitasking features, and Tenorio shared how the large QNED display helps in game analysis.
LG Philippines Head of Corporate Marketing, Mayan Salapantan, closed the program by reinforcing LG’s message: technology should create meaningful and positive experiences for people while helping preserve cultural heritage.
The “Fragments” exhibit runs for an entire month at the National Museum of Natural History in Manila.
Will more museums in the country start embracing technology like this to tell Filipino stories in new ways?
