Overview
Pablo Posada Pernikoff

Pablo Posada Pernikoff’s work is an abstract expression of his observations of matter: how it flows through time and space and transforms as nature’s forces act upon it. He seeks to unconsciously stimulate a harmonious relationship between the viewer and his work, transcending cultural, geographical, and time barriers. Works born out of crystal, obsidian or glass are hand carved and treated with acids and other techniques in order to produce different textures pertaining to the material. Deep carvings set into the glass create areas of light and shadow that evoke the ethereal and changing concept of movement, while reliefs formed out of paper and metal express movements that have been frozen in time.
