Ang Gagasin [The Gagazine] 1.0

Zine Series

Page 1

The Gagazine upholds the subversive historical Philippine tradition of the dagli, its translation, and to capture the artists in photography as part of a collaborative project. This attempt to form alternative ways of unity opens up possibilities to understand our perspective, and it enables us in turn to redefine the bond between visual and text, images and narrative, as for art and freedom.

This series includes four editions of "The Gaga Zines" along with "The Other Lady Gaga (TOLG)" performances, available in the Music and Performances section.
