Kontras Materi
“From 2006 to 2017, I tried to express the dimensions of my life experience through the meanings of reality and the world I faced. I also provided a stimulus for spiritual reflection within myself. Art viewers can feel this reflection through various dimensions of understanding. The works I display are dominated by installation arts, featuring visuals of everyday objects made with stone materials.”
Stone holds a long historical value in human civilization. It carries many interpretations that artists still try to translate today, while other people only view it as decoration for industrial and building needs. Beyond its material function, the important aspects of stone that Gabriel have yet to fully explore are its texture, density, weight or mass, and natural color.
