KAOS MAGICK

Kaos Magick is an exhibit of mixed media works featuring sculptures, prints, paintings, and assemblages. Held at THE ARTOLOGIST, the show brings together recent pieces that explore the transformative power of chaos and the magic that arises through alchemy.

The artist takes objects often dismissed as clutter—fragments, cast-offs, forgotten things—and reimagines them through story, myth, and personal lore. These materials are transmuted into ethereal and sometimes haunting works that speak of memory, ritual, and the unseen forces that shape our lives. Kaos Magick invites viewers into a world where chaos is not destruction, but creation—where disorder becomes a source of wonder, and magic is made tangible.

This is Diana Aviado’s second solo exhibition, presented on the occasion of her 38th birthday. It is both a celebration and a invocation—an offering to friends, fellow artists, and kindred spirits who have witnessed her lifelong devotion to her world-building.

Multidisciplinary Artist & Printmaker

Diana Aviado is a second-generation Filipino artist working across printmaking, photography, assemblage, painting, and mixed media. Her career began in 2011 with a photography workshop under Wolfgang Belwinkle at Silverlens, followed by a two-person exhibition with her father, renowned printmaker Virgilio “Pandy” Aviado, at LRI Design Plaza. The show featured macro photography and digital artworks.

She held her first solo exhibition Secrets Beneath at The Crucible in 2014, presenting large-format macro photography prints. Since then, she has exhibited at Art Fair Philippines, Art in the Park, Sigwada Gallery, Kanto Gallery, the Cultural Center of the Philippines, and Imahica Art Gallery (Inheritance, 2023). Her recent work includes mixed media paintings of mythological creatures with Folklore Philippines and experimental gelliprints.
