Veejay Villafranca

Tokyo, Japan
October 2011

Vicente Jaime "Veejay" Villafranca (b. 1982 Philippines) was amongst seven Filipinos to be accepted in the first Asian documentary workshop of the Angkor photography festival in Siem Reap, Cambodia. After freelancing in 2006, he worked with Agence France Presse, Reuters, World Picture Network and the United Nations IRIN news wire. His project about the lives of former gang members in one of Manila's dangerous slums, BASECO compound, garnered the 2008 Ian Parry Scholarship grant in London. He is also the recipient of the 2007-2008 Asian Center for Journalism Photojournalism program in partnership with the World Press Photo Foundation. His work has been shown in London, Lithuania, Hongkong, Phnom Pehn, France, Turkey and Manila. Veejay is represented by Getty Global Assignments in London and Asian Motion in Cambodia. His ongoing projects evolve around the Filipino faith, the concept of reserved space, and illegal refugees in Southeast Asia apart from his project with the gangs.
