Eme is an interdisciplinary, Filipinx artist based in Warrang/Sydney, Australia – Gadigal land of the Eora nation.
Their practice explores reflections drawn from personal lived experiences and layers of oneself that is marginalised by society. This queer, trans non-binary artist works with a decolonial framework based on research and bayanihan (communal solidarity). It is often expressed through community connectivity, representation and action by transforming stories of subjugation into strength. They showcase the communal experience to celebrate the nuances of being – utilising art as a tool for expression and survival. Their works experiments with photography, print-media, ceramics, sound, video, events and installation. Eme has finished a Bachelor of Visual Arts (Honours) at Sydney College of the Arts, Sydney University who now works with activists and organisations to continue the anti-colonial resistance in support to fight all forms of oppression.
