TAPESTRY || BFA DESIGN THESIS 2021

TAPESTRY is a platform that increases indigenous visibility and amplifies their voices through the promotion of their fashion brands. Indigenous communities sell their products not only a source of income, but also a means of improving their visibility and demonstrating their agency, so promotion of the brands through materials such as magazines allows them to connect to wider audience, and serves as a gateway to further education on indigenous culture and activism.

The mission of this magazine is to improve representation of Indigenous Filipino communities, countering the historicization and erasure of Indigeneity in the nation.
