Lucifer, 2020, Philippines (1) by Ennuh TiuA modern re imagination of Lucifers fall. What if he was doomed to be exiled in the Philippines, reborn as a Filipino? What challenges will he be forced to deal with? An incompetent government, slow Internet, no access to affordable healthcare? The list is endless. @ennuhchew

Where peace and melancholy meet

the contrast of this can be said for the art of drag

never really knowing each other but together in their place of refuge on a quiet and still night to be at peace and to make peace

and imbues the piece with a more whimsical and lighthearted essence

the lead female role in Singkil

as two lovers hold each other in tight embrace

glossy pink rose apples

later deciding to draw upon that catharsis to create Contained Distress

The Cai Png ("vegetable rice") shop’s auntie is the hero figure of the piece

It encompasses various issues ranging from environmental concerns to political dynamics

It speaks to the collective desire for a world where we can fully enjoy the simple pleasures of life
