An Art Exhibit by Ryan Cayabyab

A series of works in acrylic, revealing

the music composer’s personal expressions

and explorations in the visual arts.

RED

'The Red Series was produced one after the other in quick succession because I was enamored with the color combination of this red mixing it with some yellow and orange tints with violet.'

(artist's note)

ESTILO

‘I just discovered the use of masking tape and enjoyed working with it. The Estilo series is a shout out to the early 20th century Dutch art movement De Stijl - which a friend pointed out to me after I showed him some finished works. I didn’t realize that De Stijl resonated with me. I like it.’

HARDIN

“This is a series of flower- gardens but they are not really identifiable flowers, but they look like a burst of flowers anyway.“

EXPLORATIONS

RIPRAP

“ ‘Riprap’ 1 and 2 are relatively big paintings utilizing modeling paste as a textural aid. “

EYEFIE

The 16-piece collection was painted in 2022 using acrylic on canvas. It was inspired by the artist's playful take on selfies and the 16 different voices of Ryan Cayabyab from his 1981 album titled ‘ONE’.


Each piece is 30 x 30 inches in size.
