Bro, #ConyoVerse TikTok Creator Is Having an Art Exhibit This August

(SPOT.ph) If you've seen at least one #Spongebro or #ConyoVerse clip on Instagram or TikTok, chances are you know of content creator Raco Ruiz. His parody on how bougie college students speak is on point, whether we like to admit it or not. And this August, Ruiz is showcasing content in another form: Surrealicious, his second solo exhibit that combines surrealism, graffiti art, pop art, and low-brow cartoon art. It runs from August 6 to 18 at Secret Fresh in San Juan.

What to know about TikTok influencer Raco Ruiz' Surrealicious exhibit:

For Surrealicious, Raco reinterprets childhood memories, specifically mascots on cereal baskets.

"Cereal mascots were my best friends growing up. I spent every morning with them. And for me and other children and their parents, cereal treats were thought to be the best way to start the day right. But that idea is sugar-coated," Raco said.

He further explained that a kid's morning cereal ritual can actually be euphoric, especially with the sugar rush. And Surrealicious wants to be the visual representation of this state through bright colors and surreal elements.

Ruiz has previously staged his first solo show, Ruined, in September 2022 at Aphro at The Alley at Karrivin. He also participated in group shows like Neighborhood and Surprise at R Gallery in Quezon City.

Surrealicious runs from August 6 to 18 at Secret Fresh, Ronac Art Center, Ortigas Avenue, San Juan City. For updates, follow Raco Ruiz on Instagram and TikTok.
