Tunay na Ligaya is the first solo exhibition of Maestro Ryan Cayabyab. It will be held from October 21 to November 5 at the Power Plant Mall, Rockwell in Makati City and at the Estancia Mall from November 10-26, 2023. 

The exhibit features over 50 paintings, all acrylic on canvas. The art pieces were painted by the Maestro during the pandemic when live performances almost didn’t exist.   

On display at the exhibit are seven (7) collections of Cayabyab’s various visual experiments: “Red” in bold sunset hues; “Estilo” in geometric neoplasticism; “Riprap” in the use of model paste; “Hardin” in vivid, bursting florals; “Dreams” in fluid color play; “Explorations” in modernist lines and strokes; and the headline “Eyefie” series, a 16-part collection drawing inspiration from the 16 voices of Cayabyab’s first, iconic record, One (1981).
