Frames Vol. 1

Frames Vol. 1 is a self-published photo book in collaboration with the film photographer Leonard Uy. A tribute to Metro Manila, this book reframes the mundane and more often than not gritty life in the city. Grain on grain. Life in Manila is captured on film, riso-printed, and framed by window cutouts to amplify the texture and layers of our everyday life.
