“Be careful, you are not in Wonderland. I’ve heard the strange madness long growing in your soul. But you are fortunate in your ignorance, in your isolation. You who have suffered, find where love hides. Give, share, lose—lest we die, unbloomed.”

The show’s subject matters are the artist’s titular birds who are either dying or deformed in a beautifully detailed manner. For this exhibition, all the artworks revolved around this subject matter presented in a realist perspective that is almost abstract in form because of how intricate and complex they are. This is exactly what sets this exhibition apart Quizon’s initial ones. His fascination to the subject matter makes the painstaking and constantly challenging process worthwhile so as they are executed exquisitely.
