    For the uninitiated, Ronald is one of Asia’s leading artists. His recent exhibitions include an introspective show at the Karuizawa New Art Museum in Japan, which will also be mounted in October on its counterpart in Singapore. Meanwhile, Culibrina, Cerda, Manok, Olan and D’Bayan have all made exhibits both in the country and overseas.   

    Per Autohub Group, the artists used the Mini image either as the main subject or as a jump-off point for further expression and exploration, using their distinctive styles and visual strategies in paying tribute to such an iconic car. They also used model cars in resin as painting surfaces, presenting the idea that art can have mobility, accessibility, and ability to zoom in and out of everyday life.

    These, the vehicle distributor added, are attempts in creating “rolling masterpieces.” “This collaboration not only celebrates the brand’s legacy, but also showcases the fusion of contemporary art and automotive artistry,” it added.
