Jo Bautista

I create through art and storytelling for two reasons: 

​​​

First, as a form of self-expression. From being a Filipina living abroad, to a social entrepreneur fighting for positive change, I connect my individual experiences with the collective, offering new perspectives and inviting human connection.

​​​

Second, as a medium for social engagement. I create to shine a light on realities which are often overlooked, creating a space for people to reflect and act. I turn hardship into beauty and illustrate imagination into possibility.
