Statement
Óscar Abraham Pabón (Venezuela, 1984) bases his research on the soul search for new meanings for forms and materials. In his language the geometric and the abstract are transformed to endow the objects with other readings. Brick is a recurrent element in Pabón's work, a material traditionally used in construction but transformed by means of ceramic glazes and drilled with a percussion hammer, in the manner of a stiletto on marble, it takes on new meanings.
