51 personae 51 人 - Ahead Beheaded - TKTK

This full-color zine tells the stories of ten

women political prisoners detained in

Manila. A local feminist woodcut collective

TkTk regularly visits them through social

organizations, using drawing and

conversation as a way for the women to

speak about their families, personal

histories, and experiences of struggle, as

well as their efforts to fight for the rights of

farmers and marginalized communities.

Artists from different parts of Asia were then

invited to transform these stories into

woodcut prints.

Their experiences continue to inspire

women in other parts of Asia to seek justice,

in whatever ways are possible, against

unjust social and political conditions.
