GROUP EXHIBITION
May 2 – June 14, 2025

ABOUT THE EXHIBITION

Candela Gallery is excited to open 2025 with XOXO: inspired by the beloved and overly-commodified day of Saint Valentine, this group exhibition takes a playful look at dynamics and byproducts of love. Take a walk through the back gallery for pops of rouge, birds of romance (and mythology), missed connections, and dreamy landscapes.
