Human Rights Week?




December 10. International Human Rights Day.

Here are two human rights-related activities this week.

If you have the time, please do drop by the UP Film Institute, at the Ishmael Bernal Gallery, in particular. My installation "I want you so bad I've driven you mad" is part of the FACTSHEET 5 Visual Arts Exhibit, that had just been opened to the public yesterday. The factsheet I was tasked to visually interpret is about this human rights violation case committed by the CAFGU (a paramilitary armed group that serves the reactionary government) against a minor.

RIGHTS v.3 shall also be launched at the NCAS Auditorium of CAS, UPLB on Dec 7. The compilation of Public Service Announcements includes "Pissed Off (Pikon)," a 1-minute stop motion video against political killings. This is in collaboration with Mikel Mozo, who did ...nothing. Kidding. Mozo, who, ano, took care of the musical score and the still camera shots of the chess pieces I custom-made for this mini-production. The rest of the production was a collaborative effort, in cooperation with ELBi friends who agreed to let us use their humble abode.

Also, KarMa Kolektib celebrates its 4th year on December 10.
