Ghislan Sutherland-Timm & Jann Earl Q. Madariaga
5 mins
In Our Being/Sa Aming Pagkatao is an experimental autobiographical film that converges two queer people of colours’ perspectives from the Philippines and Canada into one narrative body. As a cross-continental virtual production, the film explores themes of alienation, queerness, Afro-futurism, and the flux of self-concept through collage making and performance art.
Ghislan Sutherland-Timm (Je-iz-lan/Jess-lin) (they/she) is a multidisciplinary craftsman and amateur media archivist based in Tkaronto/Toronto. As part of the queer Black Canadian diaspora, their artistic practice is influenced by their ancestral ties and reconnection to their Afro-Vincentian heritage and Carib (Island Carib/Kalinago) roots.
Jann Madariaga is a Filipino multimedia-artist based in Cavite, Philippines. He creates visual art through digital means of design, film, photography, and illustrations. His work predominantly involves using the human form to tell melancholic stories of the human experience.
