EJ Cabangon’s latest works
Through the years, the “Star Wars” franchise has been a prime source of pop culture references. It has brought to the screen a galactic adventure, shaping our hunger for wonder and space. And as its legion of fans continue to grow, more art in different mediums are being produced to honor the cinematic masterpiece.
Among them are the latest works of EJ Cabangon. Continuing the saga, the artist painted famous characters from “Star Wars” for his exhibit dubbed as “Flux: EJ Cabangon.”
With a seemingly light-hearted subject, Cabangon is inclined to thrust such personalities from our childhood to allow us to deliberate on the flux of his works, as it moves, and disappears. This is one of the artist’s ways in combating the stress and confusion brought by the pandemic.

Titled Mapping Festivities , the Pakistan Pavilion at the 17th International Architecture Exhibition – La Biennale di Venezia, explores the national wedding hall as an architectural typology of post-colonial Pakistan. Curated by Sara M. Anwar, the pavilion will be on display on the second floor of the Palazzo Mora from May 22nd until November 21st.
The Shaadi Hall is a traditional Pakistani typology that serves the wedding ‘performance’ which first appeared in the early 1980s to address the needs of the fast-growing population of the city of Karachi. Residential villas were transformed into wedding spaces through architectural interventions such as billboard-inspired entrance façades, which created a perforated layer between the space of the city and the newly-implemented space.
