VIRTUAL GALLERY
THE GEMINI PROGRAM
The Gemini Program is a dynamic group exhibition inspired by the astrological sign Gemini—known for its spirit of curiosity, duality, and deep-rooted desire for communication. Like the sign itself, the exhibit celebrates versatility and connection, offering a rich exchange of ideas and emotions through diverse artistic expressions. Featuring the works of Kimberly Mamaril, Ace Eugenio Enriquez, and Norlie Meimban, this collection explores the many faces of human experience—from the conscious to the subconscious, the playful to the profound. Through thought-provoking paintings, interactive installations, and kinetic sculptures, the artists tap into the Gemini essence: always learning, always transforming, and always seeking new perspectives.
