GABRIEL
”I believe artistic work emanates our inner room, that of the painful repercussion of existence, of the foundation holding together our boat. That’s why I don’t think it always has to write out autobiographical tales, the artist’s individual scenery, or even make social optimization explicit. Arts belongs to the universal structure of the psique and it’s powered by the primal need to brake through the roof of our condition.”

”Before anything, I would like to insist on Gabriel’s extraordinary sensibility when it comes to the process of choosing the materials he works with: diverse – from glass to water, neon lights and snake skin, lead or actual TV sets- yet on his hands all of them acquire values completly from those they where born into. Every time each material is used, a metamorphosis takes place and we can actually talk of a creation. A creation in the proper sense of alchemy.”
