Pablo Cabrera creates, through multiple techniques, series of works that build a powerful narrative universe with a few elements. With elements that could also be found in Japanese prints, his drawings and ink paintings produce a meticulous and perfectionist atmosphere, although also endowed with mystery. The palettes are reduced to a few colors and presented as a hint. Going from enameled ceramics to engraving, inks, drawing, and sculptural installation and wall pieces executed with the oriental technique of raku ceramics, Cabrera proposes a very personal iconography that includes small characters that are difficult to see. the face, trunks and trees and landscape elements such as rivers, stones and mountains. Pivoting between tenderness and the sinister, Cabrera constructs images of a story about the relationships between humans, their domestic environments and nature.
