Tito & Tita

Tito & Tita are a film and art collective. Through installation, film, photography and collective actions they explore the spatial, architectural, performative, and cinematic elements of image- making, often working with small-gauge film formats such as Super 8 and 16 mm.

Centrally concerned with the possibilities of photographic media and its various histories, their name Tito & Tita is Tagalog for 'uncle and aunt', suggesting an informal network of artist collaborators. Their films are personal works that deal with individual histories and neuroses and share a tendency towards the playful and experimental with varying degrees of humour and satire. The network’s current incarnation includes filmmakers Shireen Seno and Gym Lumbera, production designer, Jacyn Esquillon, cinematographer, Jippy Pascua and artist, Charles Salazar. 
Tito & Tita have featured in various festivals, institutions and artist-run spaces including the International Film Festival Rotterdam, Toronto International Film Festival, the Tokyo Metropolitan Museum of Photography, Documenta (13), Tate Modern (London), M+ (Hong Kong), MoMA and The Museum of the Moving Image (New York). As a collective, Tito & Tita have also exhibited at the Ishmael Bernal Gallery, University of the Philippines Film Center, Green Papaya Art Projects, Blanc Gallery, Silverlens Gallery, Lopez Memorial Museum & Library and PAN.
