Joshua Ongcol is an artist based on the unceded territories of the xwməθkwəy̓ əm (Musqueam), Skwxwú7mesh (Squamish) and səl̓ílwətaʔɬ (Tsleil-Waututh) peoples in Vancouver, BC. In his work, Ongcol is interested in the ways tenderness manifests in the body and its receptivity to deep connection, wisdom and transformation. He is interested in methods of communication that go beyond the mediums of art and language. Ongcol aims to unravel his narrative as part of the Filipnx diaspora; specifically addressing intergenerational exchange, lineages of resilience, the concepts of “home” and “KAPWA,” queerness and reclaiming spirituality.
