About Kristian Kabuay
Kristian is an artist, entrepreneur, and futurist specializing in endangered Philippine writing systems (especially Baybayin) and traditional tattooing.
Working with both new media and traditional practices, his art weaves together pre- to post-Philippine culture, using scripts and tattoo motifs as foundations to explore identity, diaspora, memory, and duality.
He’s launched ventures around custom art, books, events, tech, and apparel to propagate these scripts and raise deeper cultural inquiry.
Kristian has spoken internationally, taught script workshops, and continues to expand his practice in visual art, tattoos, film, and education.
What to Expect
View and purchase original art pieces, prints, apparel designs, and more
Live demonstrations or storytelling from Kristian about his process and mission
Option to get name translations, script designs, or custom commissioned work
Engage with the artist, ask questions, learn about the reclaiming of script and indigenous aesthetics
This pop-up is more than a sale — it’s an opportunity to step into the living practice of heritage, art, and cultural futurism.
