ARTIST STATEMENT:

Growing up, I was immersed in many different cultures. My collection explores how exposure to love and family in all its forms molds an artist.

Through this gallery, I invite you to see my childhood through my eyes. With my art I take a focus on my own Filipino-American heritage, but it would not be complete without a nod to the many other immigrant families that raised and loved me. It takes a village.

To the families that raised me, as well as the immigrants that happen to stumble upon this gallery, consider this my official love letter to you.
