CABNOV

CABNOV’s sublimely surreal paintings and sculptures transport viewers to a playfully stylized realm somewhere beyond the scope of human experience.

The self-taught artist, based in both the Philippines and New Zealand, painted murals before producing her first canvases in 2020. “My artistic approach primarily draws upon positive and inspiring energies, utilizing vibrant colors to animate the biomorphic shapes and abstract forms present in each piece,” CABNOV says. “The landscapes I depict frequently feature landforms, flowers and surreal representations of temples or houses as human body forms, while my imaginative world presents biomorphic life forms that embody emotions, surrounding the character known as LYFE.” CABNOV made her U.S. gallery debut in April 2025 as part of Vertical Gallery’s 12-Year Anniversary international group show; we’ll present her latest collection of work at Aqua Art Miami 2025, running December 3-7.
