Nostalgia and imagination will fill the air as artists CABNOV and KAPITAN unveil their joint exhibition entitled “Age of Wonder” this November.
The exhibit aims to reintroduce audiences to the joy and curiosity of youth, exploring a time when everything is magical, vibrant and wondrous. Through their distinct yet complementary styles, CABNOV and KAPITAN transform this shared sentiment into an immersive artistic experience that bridges memory and emotion.
For CABNOV, the exhibit represents a vivid celebration of creativity and adventure, channeling the energy of childhood into colorful, dynamic compositions. Her works are known for soft forms that are built on top of one another, forming colorful yet meaningful structures. Her works are a showcase of post-modernism and surrealism, portraying movement, flow, and the reshaping of objects.
KAPITAN takes a personal approach, reflecting on the anime-inspired artworks and emotional landscapes that defined the formative years of his artistry. Made to capture child-like awe and emotions, his works stand out to show beloved characters in the world of pop culture, portrayed with an expressive use of colors and materials.
Together, their works remind viewers that the “Age of Wonder” is not confined to the past, but lives on in how we perceive and appreciate the world in the present. It’s an invitation to rediscover the beauty in small things and to follow the sense of curiosity that continues to guide us through life, no matter what age we are.
Catch the “Age of Wonder” exhibit on November 9 at the Secret Fresh Gallery, Ronac Art Center in San Juan City.
