Diokno Pasilan (b. 1963) has presented solo projects in various venues in Australia and the Philippines. He has been featured individually and collectively with Kubrist Gong Band in the Philippines and Western Australia. Having been raised in a countryside island in the Philippines, Diokno’s memories arch over his art practice that is enriched by communities and their material culture.
The Filipino culture has been shaped by hundreds of years of colonization, navigating in globalization, and persisting revolt to self-determination.
