Soluna Fine Art is proud to present San Gimignano, a solo exhibition by Hong Kong–based Filipino American artist Jon Poblador. Inspired by his visit to the Italian city last year, where he was deeply moved by the colors encountered in one of its ancient churches, the exhibition presents a new body of work shaped not by image, but by an experience of atmosphere. Poblador’s paintings are not concerned with representation, but with an immersive exploration of the act of looking. 

Working within his signature grid, Poblador constructs each surface through hundreds of repeated marks. Each brushstroke functions as a kind of silent prayer, meditative, devotional, and sustained by focused attention. San Gimignano invites a slower mode of looking. These paintings do not reveal themselves at a glance; they unfold over time. Through sustained attention, something begins to surface, not a fixed meaning, but a shift in awareness. The surface shifts from structure to atmosphere, from stillness to a quiet sense of presence.

Opening Reception: 7 May 2026 (Thur) 6 - 8 pm
