Sa Milflores, May Isang Hostes (at iba pang kuwento)
In these stories, the setting matters just as much as the characters. I took the concept of rootedness and applied it to the eponymous street on the cover.

Desaparesidos
by Lualhati Bautista
In this reissue of Lualhati Bautista’s classic, a footprint symbolizes impact, remembrance, and loss.
I decided to do without heavy-handed torture motifs, and colored the print yellow instead of a conventional blood-red.

Unused cover study.
This study interprets “forging the future” as a human-centric task involving strength, hard work, and technical skill—in other words, labor. It puts the MIESCOR worker front and center.
