HL DORUELO

Co-MISSION Curator-in-Residence

HL Doruelo (they/them/siya) is a Filipinx organizer, scholar, artist and curator whose work is deeply invested in intergenerational kinship and queer practices of care. Gathering community through food, story, and intentional movement, their cultural work and interdisciplinary research seeks to cultivate meaningful reflection and relation. They expose asymmetries in the migrant care labor industry and use storytelling as a method for mutual witnessing, collectivizing care, processing grief, protesting, and transforming harm. They previously facilitated political education and arts-driven workshops as a youth & immigrant rights organizer with AFIRE Chicago (Alliance of Filipinos for Immigrant Rights and Empowerment). An NYU Sulo Philippine Research fellow, HL holds an M.A. in Performance Studies from NYU Tisch School of the Arts and a B.A. in Public Policy Analysis, Psychology, and French from Pomona College.
