Hello,

It is not possible within current version of Views plugin, in Views custom search filters, you can setup only one logic on custom field search filter.

But it is possible with custom codes, see wordpress document:
https://codex.wordpress.org/Class_Reference/WP_Query#Custom_Field_Parameters#Custom_Field_Parameters

And the example codes under text "For example, show products where color=orange OR color=red&size=small translates to the following:"

For your reference.
