The Conference Logo:
The sides of the logo are
silhouettes of the chofa (Thai roof finials or sky tassels,
probably derived from early Khmer architecture) that
represents the Garuda or Naga, bird or serpent-like mythical
symbols that are common in the visual cultures from all over
South, Southeast and East Asia. These symbols represent
harmony between the universe and humankind. In the center of
the logo is a stylized rendition of the human form with arms
raised, a gesture associated with young people, i.e.; quest
for knowledge, an activist disposition, boundless idealism.
The letter Y, for Young Liberals & Democrats of Asia, is
also rendered by this posture. (Logo Concept
by John Joseph S. Coronel, CALD Executive Director and
executed by John Eric Sobropena of FNF Manila) |
