Kill Your Darlings
Kill Your Darlings is one of my most recent works, created especially for Women’s Month. Unlike my previous zines, this one leans more on visuals than being text-heavy. I wanted to explore a different way of expression, where silence and imagery speak louder than words. I’ll be bringing copies with me to the Babaknit Art…

Second Edition of YOUR VOICE IS A REDEMPTION
I’ll also be selling a few of my older zines from previous years, and one of them is especially dear to me. It’s called Your Voice is a Redemption—perhaps the most personal and significant piece I’ve ever created. This version differs from the original. I unfortunately lost the original soft copy, which featured a full-page…

Mourning Diary
It’s been a while since I’ve made something new. Grief has a way of hollowing you out, then quietly filling you back in with something you don’t quite recognize yet. Mourning Diary is the newest zine I’ll be launching and selling tomorrow (August 16, 2024) at the Gandang-Ganda Sa Sariling Gawa Art Fair by Gantala…

Of Shadows and Unspoken Liberties
of shadows & unspoken liberties is a zine I created to indulge in memory, secrecy, and all the things I couldn’t say out loud. It’s an intimate piece. It is raw and unfiltered, written during a time I was still trying to make sense of the mess I found myself in. This zine revolves around…

Red is the Coolest Color
RED IS THE COOLEST COLOR is a zine that explores my personal associations with the color red — from passion and rage to love, heat, and memory. It’s a collection of prose, poetry, and fleeting thoughts that revolve around this bold hue. I was lucky to have my talented friends, Gelo and Baby John, contribute…

After Moonrise
After Moonrise is a zine I made on a whim just last week. It may be spontaneous, but it is deeply heartfelt. It features poems and excerpts from my unpublished works, all touching on love and grief, often in the same breath. These pieces explore tenderness, loss, and longing, making it a quiet companion for…

Ephemeral Mondays
Ephemeral Mondays is a zine close to my heart. It is a collection of personal writings that delve into life, fear, anger, and pain. Within its pages, you’ll find raw reflections and quiet truths, accompanied by photographs my friends and I captured, as well as a few of my own artworks. It’s a small but…

Your Voice is a Redemption
Women’s month has passed. Sexual assault awareness month has passed, too. But the struggle of women and children in a patriarchal society hasn’t. This zine contains a collection of my works (poems and prose) about trauma and abuse. One of the reasons I made this zine is to create something that can give a console…
