Quick Navigation About the Event Artist Biography Artist Biography Stephanie Comilang Photo: © Julia Sellmann for Financial Times Stephanie Comilang is a Filipina-Canadian artist living and working in Berlin. With a focus on the migrant experience capable of reducing people to anonymous individuals living and working in unstable elsewheres, Comilang considers the growing disparity between the human and the global. She creates stories whose narratives are driven by multiple voices and points of view both human and more-than-human, to consider how culture and society engage with such salient aspects of the globalized world. The intimate narrative and filmic devices Comilang employs cause her films to fit not so neatly into either category of that hybrid definition—they feel too possible to be sci-fi, too close to be documentary, and instead carry something of the imagistic epistolary or confessional. Her work has been shown at the Tate Modern, Thyssen-Bornemisza National Museum, Sharjah Biennial, Hawai’i Triennial, Haus Der Kunst, and Tai Kwun. In 2019, she was awarded the Sobey Art Award, Canada’s most prestigious art prize. Acknowledgments We would like to thank the Canada Council for the Arts for its support of the event.
