Gabriel: sculpture and writing as the same language
Sic et Non, a poetics where matter and self become indestructible.
Gabriel is a sculptor. He has held exhibitions at the Santa Monica Art Center, the Miró Foundation, the Joan Prats Gallery in Barcelona, the Fernando Alcolea Gallery in Barcelona and New York, the Espais Foundation in Girona, the Vila Casas Foundation in Barcelona and the Alzueta Gallery in Barcelona, among others.
He has published the essay book Ultra la forma autárquica. L'art sense significat and the book of poems La rossor de la tenebra , both by Viena Edicions. He has also published theoretical texts and poetry in magazines such as Arc Voltaic , Àrtics , Transversal , Reduccions and Cafè Central .
Gillo Dorfles, José Corredor Matheos, Dan Cameron, Menene Gras Balaguer, Fernando Castro, Kevin Power, Pedro Azara, Carles Hac Mor, Jesús Martínez Clarà, Juan Bufill, Glòria Bosch or Rafael Argullol, among others, have written about his work.
His written work has the same relevance as his sculptures. They are inseparable in their formal and linguistic "crypticism".
Sic et Non arises from the latency of the encounter between the phenomenological unfolding of the natural world and the region of the sensitive or soul of consciousness.
Just as Gabriel says that "art is a dream of matter", he understands that poetic figurations form a dream of the self.
Just as matter dreams through art, the self dreams the epiphanic stridor of its uniqueness, through the sediment of emotional scars that decants the course of the vital journey.
Moreover, Gabriel is pained by brandishing descriptions of the combat of the sensitive in order to edify himself as an essential and singular event. Rather, he seeks to understand the emergence of poetic figuration as a projection of the profound given, as a duty, the effort of which allows the confusion between the individual yearning for survival and the tide of diasporas of the revealed totality.
