About the Puzzle One of the most essential experiences created by art is storytelling. In Haraya, we explore the art of storytelling through the lens of functional art. This limited-edition, 300-piece puzzle introduces a collective and interactive experience between the artist, artwork, and you. With each puzzle piece, the artist’s story is retold.

At its center is a towering Christmas tree, around which daily life unfolds: neighbors exchange gifts, families gather, and children play under a sky lit with fireworks. Rendered in Antido’s signature impasto technique and detailed storytelling, the work celebrates the warmth of a Filipino community. This festive tapestry reminds us that the season’s true joy is found in shared moments and the togetherness that lights up our communities.
