Jason Moss' Good Harvest: What Makes Them Human

At the Taong Putik Festival in Nueva Ecija, the townsfolk of Aliaga celebrates their Saint John the Baptist in thanksgiving and repentance, draped in dry banana or coconut leaves and skin smeared with mud. Jason Moss takes this imagery to human-like figures expressing and doing that of human things in Good Harvest. In his exploration of the human apathy, ambiguity, and isolation, Moss displays a commentary on the current face of society—identities concealed behind a mask to belong and thus living a life drenched in fear and uncertainty.
