Yet the deeper you delve into her elaborate video installations, the more clearly you discern her concentrated search for possible answers to existential questions. At the core of her work is what we commonly refer to as \u201chome.\u201d How do we define belonging and foreignness in the reality of (post-)migrant life? How do global trade, capitalism, and the aftermath of colonialism influence life on earth? The individual narrative strands, which Comilang links partly with hard cuts to create collages, follow both real and imagined stories.

Her parents fled the Philippines in the 1970s due to the unstable political situation during the Marcos dictatorship, and they built a new life for themselves in Canada. Consequently, she shares the fate of a life between worlds with the members of the diaspora and their successor generations. In her artistic exploration of (her own) identity, she found film to be a suitable medium \u2013 not least because of the narrative opportunities it offered. One of her defining influences, she says, is Filipino director Kidlat Tahimik, whose cult film <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=r7lMMIs_7lQ\">\u201cPerfume Nightmare\u201d<\/a> (1977) paints a critical picture of Western modernity \u2013 and permanently changed Comilang\u2019s view of the world after she saw it as a teenager and shortly thereafter learned that her father and the director had been friends. In 2019, she even dedicated a film to this discovery, namely \u201cIt All Makes Sense.\u201d <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n<div  class='col col-md-5 col-md-offset-1 col-xs-offset-2 col-xs-10'>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-ho-div\"><figure itemscope itemtype=\"http:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\" class=\"lazy-media-inline \" role=\"group\" aria-describedby=\"media_3gzU3J\">\n<script type=\"application\/json\">{\n\"id\" : 43006,\n\"sizes\" : {\"medium\":{\"file\":\"SCHIRN_Stephanie-Comilang_2025_WEB-28-200x300.jpg\",\"width\":200,\"height\":300,\"mime-type\":\"image\\\/jpeg\",\"filesize\":15363},\"large\":{\"file\":\"SCHIRN_Stephanie-Comilang_2025_WEB-28-683x1024.jpg\",\"width\":683,\"height\":1024,\"mime-type\":\"image\\\/jpeg\",\"filesize\":137831},\"medium_large\":{\"file\":\"SCHIRN_Stephanie-Comilang_2025_WEB-28-768x1151.jpg\",\"width\":768,\"height\":1151,\"mime-type\":\"image\\\/jpeg\",\"filesize\":169852},\"1536x1536\":{\"file\":\"SCHIRN_Stephanie-Comilang_2025_WEB-28-1025x1536.jpg\",\"width\":1025,\"height\":1536,\"mime-type\":\"image\\\/jpeg\",\"filesize\":289344},\"2048x2048\":{\"file\":\"SCHIRN_Stephanie-Comilang_2025_WEB-28-1366x2048.jpg\",\"width\":1366,\"height\":2048,\"mime-type\":\"image\\\/jpeg\",\"filesize\":484913},\"small\":{\"file\":\"SCHIRN_Stephanie-Comilang_2025_WEB-28-293x440.jpg\",\"width\":293,\"height\":440,\"mime-type\":\"image\\\/jpeg\",\"filesize\":29224},\"semi\":{\"file\":\"SCHIRN_Stephanie-Comilang_2025_WEB-28-387x580.jpg\",\"width\":387,\"height\":580,\"mime-type\":\"image\\\/jpeg\",\"filesize\":48887},\"mobile\":{\"file\":\"SCHIRN_Stephanie-Comilang_2025_WEB-28-480x720.jpg\",\"width\":480,\"height\":720,\"mime-type\":\"image\\\/jpeg\",\"filesize\":70952},\"hd\":{\"file\":\"SCHIRN_Stephanie-Comilang_2025_WEB-28-854x1280.jpg\",\"width\":854,\"height\":1280,\"mime-type\":\"image\\\/jpeg\",\"filesize\":206943},\"full\":{\"file\":\"SCHIRN_Stephanie-Comilang_2025_WEB-28-1281x1920.jpg\",\"width\":1281,\"height\":1920,\"mime-type\":\"image\\\/jpeg\",\"filesize\":432747},\"xxl\":{\"file\":\"SCHIRN_Stephanie-Comilang_2025_WEB-28-2700x4048.jpg\",\"width\":2700,\"height\":4048,\"mime-type\":\"image\\\/jpeg\",\"filesize\":1555415},\"original\":{\"file\":\"SCHIRN_Stephanie-Comilang_2025_WEB-28.jpg\",\"width\":4751,\"height\":7123}},\n\"alt\" : \"A young person in a red sweatshirt and green pants leans dreamily against a blue door.\",\n\"path\" : \"\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2025\\\/10\\\/\",\n\"video\" : null,\n\"autoplay\" : null,\n\"youtube\" : null,\n\"youtubelabel\" : \"play\",\n\"brightness\" : 100,\n\"crop\" : null,\n\"background\" : false,\n\"scale\" : 1,\n\"zoom\" : false,\n\"annotations\" : null}<\/script>\n<div class=\"height-container \" style=\"padding-bottom:149.92633129867%;

She galvanizes non-dominant communities by making them visible and thus creating empowering moments of identification. Despite their documentary character, the multi-perspective works subvert linear logic \u2013 and at the same time attack patriarchal narratives. Comilang herself refers to them as \u201cscience fiction documentaries.\u201d<br><br>A characteristic feature here is music, which is used to purposeful effect. Her clever way of combining the sudden changes of scene using sounds enables atmospheric spaces to open up that captivate the audience. She may take inspiration here from the (Berlin) club culture, whose musical presence is evident in her 2016 short film <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cometomeparadise.com\/\">\u201cLumapit Sa Akin, Paraiso (Come to Me, Paradise).\u201d<\/a> But what plays an even greater and more definitive role in her artistic creativity are music videos: Her enthusiasm for this film genre led her to skip the foundation course at the Ontario College of Art &amp; Design in Toronto in order to focus directly on media art.<br><br>Producing her films involves high costs, and she says herself that at the beginning of her career, this meant she was hardly able to meet her own benchmark. And so, shortly after moving to Berlin more than ten years ago, she set herself an ultimatum: \u201cI had gotten to the point where I thought: If I don\u2019t get this one grant then I\u2019m going to give up art and become a midwife, my preferred plan B.\u201d But she got the funding she had been hoping for, and the resulting film \u2013 \u201cLumapit Sa Akin, Paraiso (Come to Me, Paradise),\u201d about the lives of Filipino migrants in Hong Kong \u2013 gained her international recognition. And by the time she was named the winner of the Sobey Art Award 2019, Canada\u2019s most prestigious art prize, there was no going back: Her productions grew bigger and bigger, and are now commissioned by renowned institutions worldwide.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n<div  class='col col-md-5 col-md-offset-1 col-xs-offset-2 col-xs-10'>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-ho-div\"><figure itemscope itemtype=\"http:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\" class=\"lazy-media-inline \" role=\"group\" aria-describedby=\"media_3gzU3J\">\n<script type=\"application\/json\">{\n\"id\" : 39468,\n\"sizes\" : {\"medium\":{\"file\":\"Schirn_Presse_Stephanie_Comilang_Diaspora_Ad_Astra_2020_Still_1-300x154.jpg\",\"width\":300,\"height\":154,\"mime-type\":\"image\\\/jpeg\",\"filesize\":14719},\"large\":{\"file\":\"Schirn_Presse_Stephanie_Comilang_Diaspora_Ad_Astra_2020_Still_1-1024x526.jpg\",\"width\":1024,\"height\":526,\"mime-type\":\"image\\\/jpeg\",\"filesize\":115765},\"medium_large\":{\"file\":\"Schirn_Presse_Stephanie_Comilang_Diaspora_Ad_Astra_2020_Still_1-768x395.jpg\",\"width\":768,\"height\":395,\"mime-type\":\"image\\\/jpeg\",\"filesize\":73735},\"1536x1536\":{\"file\":\"Schirn_Presse_Stephanie_Comilang_Diaspora_Ad_Astra_2020_Still_1-1536x790.jpg\",\"width\":1536,\"height\":790,\"mime-type\":\"image\\\/jpeg\",\"filesize\":210963},\"2048x2048\":{\"file\":\"Schirn_Presse_Stephanie_Comilang_Diaspora_Ad_Astra_2020_Still_1-2048x1053.jpg\",\"width\":2048,\"height\":1053,\"mime-type\":\"image\\\/jpeg\",\"filesize\":316652},\"small\":{\"file\":\"Schirn_Presse_Stephanie_Comilang_Diaspora_Ad_Astra_2020_Still_1-440x226.jpg\",\"width\":440,\"height\":226,\"mime-type\":\"image\\\/jpeg\",\"filesize\":28644},\"semi\":{\"file\":\"Schirn_Presse_Stephanie_Comilang_Diaspora_Ad_Astra_2020_Still_1-580x298.jpg\",\"width\":580,\"height\":298,\"mime-type\":\"image\\\/jpeg\",\"filesize\":45887},\"mobile\":{\"file\":\"Schirn_Presse_Stephanie_Comilang_Diaspora_Ad_Astra_2020_Still_1-720x370.jpg\",\"width\":720,\"height\":370,\"mime-type\":\"image\\\/jpeg\",\"filesize\":66193},\"hd\":{\"file\":\"Schirn_Presse_Stephanie_Comilang_Diaspora_Ad_Astra_2020_Still_1-1280x658.jpg\",\"width\":1280,\"height\":658,\"mime-type\":\"image\\\/jpeg\",\"filesize\":161991},\"full\":{\"file\":\"Schirn_Presse_Stephanie_Comilang_Diaspora_Ad_Astra_2020_Still_1-1920x987.jpg\",\"width\":1920,\"height\":987,\"mime-type\":\"image\\\/jpeg\",\"filesize\":289663},\"original\":{\"file\":\"Schirn_Presse_Stephanie_Comilang_Diaspora_Ad_Astra_2020_Still_1.jpg\",\"width\":2404,\"height\":1236}},\n\"alt\" : \"A man carries a pineapple on his back, set against a calm water landscape with clouds and trees in the background.\",\n\"path\" : \"\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2025\\\/08\\\/\",\n\"video\" : null,\n\"autoplay\" : null,\n\"youtube\" : null,\n\"youtubelabel\" : \"play\",\n\"brightness\" : 100,\n\"crop\" : null,\n\"background\" : false,\n\"scale\" : 1,\n\"zoom\" : false,\n\"annotations\" : null}<\/script>\n<div class=\"height-container \" style=\"padding-bottom:51.414309484193%;

Institutional invitations prompt Comilang to conduct intensive on-site research, and in this she always \u2013 albeit not exclusively \u2013 approaches the respective Filipino communities. Now, the SCHIRN has united the two films in one place for the first time and thus, following a prior screening in New York, is hosting the European premiere of the second part.<br><br>For each presenting venue, the artist experiments anew with installation elements. While \u201cSearch for Life I\u201d uses site-specific mirrored walls to play with visitors\u2019 perspectives and thus visibly integrate them into the work, \u201cSearch for Life II\u201d is projected onto glistening strings of synthetic pearls, creating a shimmering, dreamlike image. Sculptural works that relate to the moving images round out the settings. Hence, for the SCHIRN exhibition, selected still images from the film material were transferred onto freely hanging beaded curtains. To create this effect, Comilang had the themes dissolved into pixels; then the beads were dyed in the corresponding colors and threaded by hand. Behind the works moving gently in the airflow are deep reflections on production conditions, process chains, and the exchange of goods.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n<div  class='col col-md-5 col-md-offset-1 col-xs-offset-2 col-xs-10'>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-ho-div\"><figure itemscope itemtype=\"http:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\" class=\"lazy-media-inline \" role=\"group\" aria-describedby=\"media_3gzU3J\">\n<script type=\"application\/json\">{\n\"id\" : 43111,\n\"sizes\" : {\"medium\":{\"file\":\"DSC4765-JPG-300dpi-200x300.jpg\",\"width\":200,\"height\":300,\"mime-type\":\"image\\\/jpeg\",\"filesize\":27105},\"large\":{\"file\":\"DSC4765-JPG-300dpi-683x1024.jpg\",\"width\":683,\"height\":1024,\"mime-type\":\"image\\\/jpeg\",\"filesize\":196640},\"medium_large\":{\"file\":\"DSC4765-JPG-300dpi-768x1152.jpg\",\"width\":768,\"height\":1152,\"mime-type\":\"image\\\/jpeg\",\"filesize\":232490},\"1536x1536\":{\"file\":\"DSC4765-JPG-300dpi-1024x1536.jpg\",\"width\":1024,\"height\":1536,\"mime-type\":\"image\\\/jpeg\",\"filesize\":354068},\"2048x2048\":{\"file\":\"DSC4765-JPG-300dpi-1365x2048.jpg\",\"width\":1365,\"height\":2048,\"mime-type\":\"image\\\/jpeg\",\"filesize\":539061},\"small\":{\"file\":\"DSC4765-JPG-300dpi-293x440.jpg\",\"width\":293,\"height\":440,\"mime-type\":\"image\\\/jpeg\",\"filesize\":52321},\"semi\":{\"file\":\"DSC4765-JPG-300dpi-387x580.jpg\",\"width\":387,\"height\":580,\"mime-type\":\"image\\\/jpeg\",\"filesize\":83002},\"mobile\":{\"file\":\"DSC4765-JPG-300dpi-480x720.jpg\",\"width\":480,\"height\":720,\"mime-type\":\"image\\\/jpeg\",\"filesize\":114995},\"hd\":{\"file\":\"DSC4765-JPG-300dpi-853x1280.jpg\",\"width\":853,\"height\":1280,\"mime-type\":\"image\\\/jpeg\",\"filesize\":271747},\"full\":{\"file\":\"DSC4765-JPG-300dpi-1280x1920.jpg\",\"width\":1280,\"height\":1920,\"mime-type\":\"image\\\/jpeg\",\"filesize\":489289},\"xxl\":{\"file\":\"DSC4765-JPG-300dpi-2699x4048.jpg\",\"width\":2699,\"height\":4048,\"mime-type\":\"image\\\/jpeg\",\"filesize\":1475940},\"original\":{\"file\":\"DSC4765-JPG-300dpi.jpg\",\"width\":2756,\"height\":4134}},\n\"alt\" : \"A white bead curtain hangs in front of a patterned floor covering in a modern room.\",\n\"path\" : \"\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2025\\\/10\\\/\",\n\"video\" : null,\n\"autoplay\" : null,\n\"youtube\" : null,\n\"youtubelabel\" : \"play\",\n\"brightness\" : 100,\n\"crop\" : null,\n\"background\" : false,\n\"scale\" : 1,\n\"zoom\" : false,\n\"annotations\" : null}<\/script>\n<div class=\"height-container \" style=\"padding-bottom:150%;

The couple worked together on <a href=\"https:\/\/jsfoundation.art\/videos\/stephanie-comilang-simon-speiser-pina-why-is-the-sky-blue\/\">\u201cPi\u00f1a, Why Is the Sky Blue?,\u201d<\/a> their joint exhibition at the Berlin branch of the Julia Stoschek Foundation in 2021, and were influenced by each other\u2019s artistic practices in doing so. While she introduced him to the making of the short film of the same name, he inspired her to translate the film\u2019s content into three dimensions \u2013 both in virtual reality and in embroidery.<br><br>Such embroidery thus adorned a textile fabric called pi\u00f1a in a series of murals. This fabric is traditionally made from pineapple leaves in the Philippines, and its original genesis is closely linked to the history of (Spanish) colonization. In the techno-fictional world of the artist couple, a spiritual medium talks about this historical background.<br><br>Pi\u00f1a fabric can currently also be found in Comilang\u2019s SCHIRN show: In the middle of the video installation \u201cSearch for Life I,\u201d ghostly figures rise up, veiled in pi\u00f1a embroidered with monarch butterflies and flowers.
