Waves Like Mountains is an exhibition presenting a suite of new drawings by local artist Kristone Capistrano. The show tracks the growing gesturality and abstraction of his ink and charcoal works that coincides with his move to Kirribilli mid 2022. Refined and closely rendered figurations begin to melt into greater gesturality and loosely moving forms that resemble mountains and wave; vibrations, wavelengths and dancing lines oscillating in shades of black and grey.
Kristone Capistrano is a Philippine-born artist based in Sydney and Manila working within contemporary drawing and mark-making; on paper, film, performance and community collaborations. His works explore notions of mortality, transience and contemporary figurations.
