Augustine Paredes (*1994) in Cagayan de Oro City, Philippines, is a multi-disciplinary artist questioning what it means to desire in the light of migration, identity, and longing.
His expanded photographic practice revolves and evolves in questioning the post-colonial identity of a Filipino in diaspora through different appropriation of artistic mediums, traditional materials, and historical narratives.
Paredes works with image-making via photography, painting, poetry, and installation. He is a co-founder of Sa Tahanan Collective, along with curator Anna Bernice delos Reyes, aiming to create a platform for Filipino art and creatives through exhibitions, art sales, and collaborations.
