How old is the house? do you have engineered trusses for a roof structure? Is this near the center of the house?
That is more than cosmeticsWood moves with the seasons and moves with age. I would not be to excited about that.
Fix by scraping out the effected area. Carefully, to minimize damage to cabinets and ceiling. Maybe run utility knife along ceiling to ensure you don't pull anything off beyond that. Caulk with paintable white acrylic caulk. Looks like a situation where applying tape to ceiling and cabinets before caulking will be helpful. Pull tape immediately after caulking. Really, you need to repaint ceiling and cabinets to make it invisible, but if you put tape down before caulking, it will look pretty good and probably nobody will notice, until you are ready to paint.
that is the corner tape on drywall pulling apart.Got a mess there, no clue why that that oddball trim is even there, or why there's two different types where used.
Just guessing, was that trim added to hide some form of wiring?
