A Ritual of Faith ©Estan Cabigas
Filipinos Estan Cabigas (Aninag), Jes Aznar and MM Yu are 3 of 15 Southeast Asian photographers invited to participate in the inaugural International Orange Photo Festival. The special exhibition entitled Notes from the South, New Photography from Southeast Asia is curated by Zhuang Wubin, photographer and researcher on contemporary photography in the said region.
Wubin, in his website says:
This is the first time that a diverse range of contemporary photographic practices originating from the region will be seen within the same setting in China… I have made an attempt to acknowledge the egalitarian nature of the medium by bouncing off different kinds of work in this selection. The featured artists are guided by their spirit of independence, choosing to produce work, first and foremost, as a personal endeavour to investigate or reflect upon specific concerns that are close at heart. For them, photography has become a strategy of encountering their environment.
The works featured are:
A Ritual of Faith (Estan Cabigas)
Fragile (Jes Aznar)
Thoughts Collected, Recollected (MM Yu)
The photo festival will happen 22-26 October 2010 in Changsha, China.
Estan Cabigas is a freelance photographer and blogger based in Makati City, the Philippines. He finished his Diploma in Photojournalism in 2009 at the Asian Center for Journalism. He travels to keep his sanity. MORE
