We are making BEACH MEETING a thing in Bicol. We discuss our future projects in a remote island while we achieve a golden tan.
Dios mabalos, Sining Banwa!
Flew all the way to Legazpi, Albay early this morning to watch the on-site performance of Sining Banwa.
Ibang klaseng kaladkarin levels na ako dahil sa inyo, Sari Saysay! Salamat at break a leg!
Marhay na aga, majestic Mayon Volcano! We are at alert level 2!!!
I’m here to work with the Sining Banwa community theatre.
Naku napanuod ko na ito. Yung inimbita ka for work tapos ikaw pala ang alay sa bulkan.
So honored to be invited in the new #FeelingsExplained podcast episode!
Saya that I get to chika about the higher highs, lower lows, and the rollercoaster of emotions with my fave people from MC, Gian Viatka and Pat Berin! I appreciate you for planting love and hope in your podcast!
Part 1 is up: https://spoti.fi/3ypqodO
It is an auspicious day to post this aesthetic and functional poster (kalendaryo eh)! BWAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHA! Rakenrol creative process ito!
El Traje Dela Cuerpo Conquistada (The Trail/Gown of the Conquered Body)
The performance aims to participate in decolonizing narratives traversing the cultural and historical significance of saints, Maria Clara (image), and the modern-day Filipina by using the traje (trail/gown) as a device that intertwines the native and the foreign, and by recognizing the agency of the colonized body in the traje. The performance is divided into three parts:
El Cuerpo (Noli Me Tangere’s Kabanata 26: Bisperas ng Piyesta)
Fantasma (Noli Me Tangere’s Epilogo)
Secreta Vida (MonoVlog)
The performance is funded by the University of the Philippines’ Enhanced Creative Work and Research Grant.
El Traje is a work in progress. We have 3 scholars reviewing the work this October to give comments and recommendations to our team. We are still looking for additional funds to translate and place captions in English, and to adapt the digital performance to an on-site performance (as originally envisioned in 2020).
Viewing for selected guests will be on 21 October 2022.
If you wish to watch the performance (hopefully in November), kindly fill out the form: https://forms.gle/SXvrnQoUk8haotQSA
*Special thanks to Ige Ramos and Michael Bernal for your brains and generosity.
Noli Me Tangere > History is like chismis.
Sapi > theatre muse
Digital > inabutan kami ng ECQ, MECQ, monkeypox, atbp delubyo sa Pinas
Maria Clara = Me (?)
Me = (X + Y) + Z
Where
X = Digital Performance
Y = Sapi ng Muse
Z = Rizal is still very relevant
Last leg of our 18-month (or more) project. Thank you, UP ECWRG for the pera to support our slow performance making.
Slowly constructing the digital archive of my body of work via Instagram. Look for OLIVE.NIETO on Instagram or scan the QR code below (naks! techie tayo, mga ante!). Each photo contains a side kwento (story) about my experience in the production.
Some posts contain related papers where I also write about the performance for a conference or a book (naks! artist-scholar yarn?).
Bukas po lagi ang tindahan (since 2007) for creative works, resource person/moderator jobs and commercials! Let’s collab!
Layeta Pinzon Bucoy and I will be presenting “MonoVlogging Hunger: Online Dramatization of Food Inaccessibility in the Pandemic” at Performance Studies International (PSi) #27: Hunger 2022 next week.
This performance-lecture is part of the several experiments for my UP Enhanced Creative Work & Research Grant (ECWRG 2020-2-12C) creative work titled” El Traje Dela Cuerpo Conquistada (The Trail/Gown of the Conquered Body),” written by Layeta P. Bucoy and design by John Carlo Pagunaling.
