Gagamboys work published in Asian Currents Magazine

My photo story entitled GAGAMBOYS looks at a summer diversion of spider fighting transformed into a betting game by adults

Cover of the magazine

After being featured in a series of international and local magazines* last May and this month, my work, Gagamboys, is being featured in the Asian Currents, Journal of Works and Studies in Asian Journalism published by the Konrad Adenauer Asian Center for Journalism (ACFJ) at the Ateneo de Manila University.

This is the ACFJ’s special 10th Anniversary issue featuring the best student works submitted as a requirement in graduating in the M.A. Journalism (15 articles) and five of the best photo stories in the Diploma in Photojournalism programs that are offered. The variety reflects the diversity of interests and issues confronting today’s Asia. A photo exhibit entitled Asian News in Pictures accompanies this feature.

Gagamboys was my minor portfolio submission for my Diploma inPhotojournalism course and was taken in Bagong Barrio, Caloocan City.
