Pio Abad (1983, Manila) is an artist whose work is concerned with the personal and political entanglements of objects. His wide-ranging body of work mines alternative or repressed historical events and offers counter-narratives that draw out threads of complicity between incidents, ideologies, and people. Recent exhibitions include To Those Sitting in Darkness, Ashmolean Museum, Oxford, 2024; and Is it morning for you yet?, 58th Carnegie International, Pittsburgh, 2023. He was recently nominated for the 2024 Turner Prize. Abad lives and works in London.
