Bea Rubio-Gabriel


  

        Bea Rubio-Gabriel is a performance artist and independent curator experimenting with writing as artform and how performance and mark-making may be used as a gateway for cultural understanding and re-connection. Bea’s work examines their diasporic identity as it navigates through Western-bound gender conventions, language barriers, political repression, geographic displacement and emotional trauma. Drawing from their lived experiences, Bea imagines new spaces and systems built upon care and solidarity.

guerra/SELF
2021


An envisionment of how mark-making and writing can function as a space that allows increasingly politicised self to simply ‘be’. Drawing on pre-colonial Baybayin and Ipugao ways of thinking around healing and community, their work sets out to externalise an attempt to understand the dislocated self through language.
