WHO INSPIRES ME?
“As a member of the Filipino Diaspora, I feel disconnected from my roots, and I want to embrace and create a beautiful eulogy for my culture while I’m far away from my motherland. These three animated gifs are portraits of the important women in my life: my grandmother, mother and myself. I would describe them as love letters for them and myself, hiding my message in plain sight, unless you look closely.
“I hope that in 2023 I can do a solo exhibition of my practice – with workshops and a DJ! I want to show my grandmother back home, who I miss, how I’m celebrating and embracing the Filipino culture as a first-generation migrant kid in the UK.”
