Artist Development Fund recipient, 2021
Mecoh Bain (she/her) is a Filipino-Canadian freelance photographer based in Calgary, Alberta. Her photography practice is anchored in storytelling and community. She says, “As a biracial woman and mother, I feel a responsibility behind the lens to shift the narrative and bring diversity and representation of the BIPOC and LGBTQ2IA+ communities to the forefront of contemporary art and commercial photography.”
Mecoh’s commission project for Adobe Stock will respond to the Celebration of Self creative brief. In a society where hustling is expected and personal wellbeing is often the last thing on the to-do list, Mecoh says, “I strive to create soulful imagery that gives people permission to rest their mind, body, and soul in a way that feels unrestrained, approachable, and imperfect.”
