Re-member our Lunar Eclipse Event w/ Katlo
On March 3, 2026, we gathered to talk about the lunar eclipse, rice, and Filipino/CHamoru culture. Look at the photos!
hello, i’m buhito.
a documentarian, painter, and an imperfect practitioner of a restorative storytelling methodology.
i don’t use social media, so subscribing to this little email newsletter will be the best way to keep up with general happenings. will send you meaningful things and invitations to get togethers that will move you.
a moment before the sisters sowed a diverse collection of maíz into the rich soil, high in the mountains. she must have heard me slipping into the ditch, cursing under my breath. i hadn't made a beautiful photo yet that day. she locked eyes with me and offered a gentle smile. thank goodness.
the youngest, offering up a bag full of his grandfather's amaranth harvest. later that day, he sat on his abuelo's knee as the man shared stories of the mexican revolution.
twins holding a bunch of aleisi -- some of the rarest rice in the world -- harvested by their mother on the edge of the Amazon rainforest. this rice descends from the grains braided into Ma Paanza's hair before she liberated herself from the plantation and joined other maroons in the jungle. the twins descend from her.
a proud seed keeper.
in palawan, the rocks can speak.
a floor of maíz.
the main themes of my work are identity, indigeneity, and the environment.
within these, i make:
poetic, useful documentary projects for small, engaged audiences; shown in community > seen alone
abstract documentary paintings
and every now and then, workshops and demonstrations
