Beginning with a residency in Lucban, Philippines, this project develops a large-scale installation inspired by the Pahiyas Festival. Through community collaboration and traditional kiping-making, the work explores intergenerational knowledge, ritual and material culture, creating an immersive environment reflecting the fragility and resilience of cultural memory.
Jessica Dorizac is an artist whose work is currently informed by the language of ornament and design. Her practice navigates the multiplicities of place, identity and history, rooted in her own biracial experiences, and engages with the complexities of cultural identity through reframing cultural goods.
Dorizac is currently living and working between the land of Turrbal and Yuggera peoples in so-called Australia, and the Philippines.
