About the artists
JoJo (they/he) is a community-centered artist and culture bearer born on Raymaytush-Ohlone land (San Francisco) and raised by the Muni lines of the Excelsior District. Their work is inspired by their ancestors, Queer & Trans elders, and Bay Area culture. JoJo is a part of Ancestral Dreams Collective (@ancestraldreamsco), a group of Queer & Trans POC printmakers based in the Bay Area. They are currently an apprentice in batok, an indigenous Filipino hand-tapped tattoo practice. JoJo hopes that their art encourages young people to explore their history and use art as a tool to connect with community and ancestors. You can’t find them on social media, but if you see them on the street, feel free to say wassup!

Adrian Clutario (they/them) is a multidisciplinary artist and designer based in Oakland, CA since 2014. Their practice involves a variety of techniques — sculpture, installation, furniture, performance, and fashion. Clutario’s queer Filipinx-American identity informs their work, imagining and creating different possibilities of our heteronormative and colonized surroundings. Deeply utilizing drag and craft sensibilities, Clutario exaggerates and blurs the lines of design, space, and familial lineage - striving to heal around diasporic generational trauma. Adrian Clutario’s work has been exhibited nationally and has received their BFA from Otis College of Art and Design in 2012.
