His poetry collection "Who Steps Upon is Stepped Upon" was awarded the 2023 Philippine National Book Awards. He was born in 1975 in Cebu City, Philippines.

He is currently an Assistant Professor at the School of Visual Communication within Ohio University's Scripps College of Communication.

Literature

Durado has authored numerous books of Cebuano poems. His poetry is known for its earthy, playful, and sometimes reckless nature, capturing the essence of Filipino society's local color, often associated with poverty, violence, and the Filipinos' survival mechanism. His collection, "To Whom It May Not Concern", was a finalist in the 2019 International Book Awards and chosen as one of the best Filipino books of 2017 by CNN Philippines.

In his National Book Award-winning collection, "Who Steps Upon is Stepped Upon," judges praised the poet for his adept use of language, crafting diverse images by drawing inspiration from various visual forms such as postcards, paintings, photographs, and other non-prose texts. The NBA citation states: "Durado's collection represents an exciting evolution in Cebuano poetry, blending poetry with politics and utilizing a more relevant and colloquial language, often described as 'street slang' by Erlinda Alburo. The fertility of inventiveness, imagination, and thought showcased in Durado's work continues to breathe life into Cebuano's writing."

According to National Artist for Literature Resil Mojares: Шаблон:Blockquote

Durado's mastery of the Cebuano language and his ability to evoke emotion through carefully constructed phrases have contributed to the enrichment of the Cebuano literary tradition.
