Load Na Dito (2016) is an artistic and research initiative
based in Manila, Philippines. Developed as a home made culture, currently based
in Cubao, Quezon City, it uses any possible space as a site for knowledge
sharing, inquiry and discussion. “Load na Dito” is a local top up system for
cellphone credit, where you can load anywhere as long as you can see a sign
“load na dito.” Developing it as a
model, the initiative makes projects in different locations—in various formats
and sizes. By organizing and
co-organizing a wide range of programs, Load na Dito hopes to critically
address the questions of participation and collaboration in relation to the
practice of contemporary art.
Recent projects include “Almost There” presented at Kamloops
Art Gallery, Victoria, Canada and Silpakorn University Arts Centre, Bangkok
(2021); Pasa Load Online Residency (2020-2021); Please... Use Other Door
Publication (2021); FLEX* at 3rd Kamias Triennale, Quezon City and Pockets on
the Streets, Kyoto City University of the Arts Art Gallery (2020) and 1st Kabit
at Sabit, various sites across the Philippines (2019).
