Nissan PH expands collab with Quiccs Maiquez

MANILA: The partnership between Nissan and Filipino artist Quiccs Maiquez has further expanded with the unveiling of a new artwork collection inspired by the models seen at the 10th Philippine International Motor Show.

The new Nissan-Quiccs collection, which was displayed at the four-day event organized by the Chamber of Automotive Manufacturers of the Philippines Incorporated, drew inspiration from the X‑Trail e‑Power, Nissan Kicks e‑Power, Navara Pro Plug-in Hybrid, and the Primera EV. 

In a statement, the Japanese automaker’s arm in the country noted that each piece wears a distinct colorway corresponding to a respective vehicle, which transforms "Nissan's design philosophy into striking works of contemporary art.”

Maiquez noted that creating the new collection was tricky as each vehicle presented a different creative challenge.

"The X‑Trail e‑Power has a refined and adventurous character, the Kicks e‑Power feels youthful and energetic, the Navara Pro Plug-in Hybrid brings strength and capability, while the Primera EV represents a bold vision of the future. I wanted each piece to reflect those unique personalities while maintaining a cohesive visual language across the collection," he explained. 

He also said that the refreshed team-up with Nissan represented an opportunity to explore the similarities between two seemingly different creative disciplines.

"What excited me most about this collaboration was the opportunity to reinterpret Nissan's vehicles through my own creative lens," he said. "It's interesting to see how the same design principles—shape, color, attitude, and storytelling—can exist in both automotive design and collectible art."

For his part, said Nissan Philippines Incorporated President Yoshinori Kanazawa expressed firm belief that the refreshed alliance highlighted a broader effort to connect with audiences through culture and creativity.

"At Nissan, design goes beyond vehicles; it's about creating emotional connections. Our collaboration with Quiccs celebrates creativity and self-expression, bringing together automotive innovation and contemporary art in a way that resonates with enthusiasts, collectors, and culture-driven audiences," he said.

To recall, the Nissan-Quiccs collaborative exhibition began last February during the Nissan Festival held at the Clark International Speedway.
