Pinoy Pride
My photography drifts between past and present, playing with gender-swapped roles inspired by old Filipino photographs—especially the familiar poses of couples from the 1800s to today. I recreate these moments to gently place queer bodies into a history where we were often erased. Through these images, I reclaim space that once denied us visibility, allowing our presence to exist openly across time. This work becomes a quiet act of remembrance and resistance, affirming that queer lives, love, and tenderness have always been here—even when they were left unseen.
We exist, and we are Pinoy Pride!
Campaign Poster
We rarely see murals, posters, or public artworks that reflect Filipino lives, especially queer Filipino community. Our absence speaks loudly. Through this work, I create what has been missing: a visible affirmation that we are here. This poster stands as both a celebration and a claim — we exist, and we are Pinoy Pride.
