ARTIST BIO: XYZA CRUZ BACANI (b. 1987, the Philippines) is an award-winning interdisciplinary artist and writer based in New York.

She has been recognized as one of Asia Society’s Asia 21 Young Leaders, Artpil’s 30 Under 30 Women Photographers, Forbes’s 30 Under 30 Asia, and BBC’s 100 Women of the World. Her artistic accomplishments are documented by the Philippines House of Representatives under ‘House Resolution No. 1969’.
