Running from May 24 to June 21\, 2025\, the exhibition transforms the gallery into an electrified realm of instinct\, identity\, and modern chaos — with animals\, symbols\, and urban textures colliding in technicolor form. What sets this exhibition apart is its live artist interview and opening reception on Saturday\, May 24. At 3:00 PM\, Sigrid Gong\, art advisor and founder of SLG Design Agency\, will host a talk-show-style conversation with Taka Sudo\, diving into the artist’s influences\, symbolism\, process\, and personal philosophy. The interview will be filmed in front of a live audience.\nReception: https://www.eventbrite.ca/e/taka-sudo-electric-wild-opening-reception-at-capulet-art-gallery-tickets-1366717080579\nWebsite: https://www.capuletart.com/
