Woman of the House: Teta Tulay

Core Member, The ANINO Shadowplay Collective
Teta’s devotion to lucifer led her to ANINO’s abode. Once there, she found herself quitting her 24/7 job as a professional animator and instead began exploring the myriad wonderful uses of the lowly masking tape, aside from entreating Elmo (Anino’s 17-year old ohp) to work when it refuses to light up. Inflicted with a two-tone tinnitus and an incurable optimism, she wishes to mentor as many minds open to the artform as she can and witness Anino’s world domination before she retires. These days she is preoccupied with the struggles in an unfairly forgetful world.
A cultural worker and educator who has received recognition from the Cultural Center of the Philippines’ Gawad CCP Para sa Alternatibong Video at Pelikula, Animation Council of the Philippines, Inc. (ACPI), and the Philippine Board on Books for Young People (PBBY) for her works in animation and illustration. She is a member of Anino Shadowplay Collective, a group of artists devoted to the popularization of shadowplay in the country, and KASIBULAN (Kababaihan sa Sining at Bagong Sibol na Kamalayan), a women artists’ organization. She does multimedia work with award-winning activist group Southern Tagalog Exposure, and is the vice chair of Pinoy Animagination, a collective of independent animators who regularly facilitate workshops to propagate alternative and independent animation. She is currently extern moderator at the Ateneo De Manila Grade School, Fine Arts program coordinator at Kalayaan College, and lecturer at the University of the Philippines Film Institute.
She plays bass for the bands Republika de Lata and Inkantada.
