This self-portrait photo series explores identity and stereotypes. The artist believes identity is shaped through what individuals can readily consume in their immediate environments. Through popular drinks the artist regularly enjoys, the artist considers race, nationality, culture, and social demography of Toronto as a Filipino-Canadian born and raised in Toronto. Similarly to the fluidity of different drinks, the artists believes identity takes several forms, constantly changes, and is not static.
