Livehems.

On the hem of life.

Bas-reliefs to the treasure in the playful approach to life in natura.

In these works, a certain abstraction is noticeable in the composition of the motifs: the everyday of the artificial man-made extracted from the familiar - fanning out of time: recover.refine.reuse. Again, time and the sense of time permeates the works. On the edge of life, in the middle of it, fringed, hemmed - Life. Hem. Time. Moments captured, frozen in a small gesture - nightmare and dream combined.

Disturbing-conceptual creation in the original sense. The works of a Gabriel Bur have much to offer: comprehensible precisely stated themes and questions about time, childhood and consumption. Construction and deconstruction in seeing and perceiving. Gabriel: “The apparent is so powerful today, as it should not be.”

Through his work, the artist deals with time and the perception of time, which results in a fanning out of time spaces. In his work you will find a variety of techniques and always the confrontation, objets trouvés, found objects raised to the object and then captured in a work of painting.
