“Lakapati Riot” by Kristian Kabuay Mixed media, 20” x 16” stretched canvas ---- Lakapati Riot is a cross-cultural experience that takes you on a journey to the pre-Philippines, to Stonewall 1969, and to 2020. Lakapati is thought of as a two-spirit Fertility deity and is portrayed by trans advocate, Geena Rocero @geenarocero. I created this piece as a playful assault to talk about traditional immigrant cultural practices and their role in modern American society. – Kristian Kabuay This artwork is currently “on view” at @ritualcoffee on Valencia.
