[Bio c. 2010] Dada Docot explores issues of the personal and of space within the different contexts of international mobility. Looking at migration as an arena where citizenships and identities are performed, re/defined and re/asserted, her photography and film works focus on the intricate and the intimate. The stories that she seeks to share arise from self-reflection, herself being a member of a rural-to-urban family of migrants, who later moved to various countries across the globe. Originally from the Philippines, Dada obtained her MA in Human Security Studies/ Anthropology from the University of Tokyo in 2008. She recently moved to Vancouver for her PhD studies in Anthropology at the University of British Columbia.
