From brush stroke to fluidity of movement in two-artist exhibition “Convergence”

Aaron Virata Mempin and Ronna Manansala exhibition

A landmark two-artist exhibition entitled “CONVERGENCE: Bridging Generations and Creativity” brings together the distinct yet complementary worlds of Aaron Virata Mempin and Ronna Manansala. 

Set within the Monteverdi Room of Altro Mondo Creative Space, the show invites viewers to witness a profound creative dialogue that transcends individual mediums. 

“Convergence” is a space where the stroke of a brush meets the precision of geometry, and where the echoes of Philippine art history find a new, modern pulse.

Aaron Virata Mempin and Ronna Manansala

An artist-entrepreneur and geometric abstractionist, Aaron explores the intersection of calm and motion. His practice is rooted in a background of marketing and community-building through Katha Pilipinas, resulting in a visual language of line and structure that bridges classical discipline with contemporary energy.

Meanwhile, Ronna, carrying the storied legacy of her grandfather, National Artist Vicente Manansala, reinterprets her heritage through a deeply emotive and personal lens. Her work captures the quiet strength, grace, and fluid movement of her subjects, breathing new life into traditional themes.

At its heart, their collaboration is about the fluid boundaries of inspiration. Through both individual pieces and rare shared collaborations, Aaron and Ronna explore the meeting point of heritage and innovation.
