THE INSPIRATION
Using his wealth of life experiences, through wars, famine, abuse and struggle, Gabriel's inspiration has always been the human condition. The subject matter in his art reflecs the darkest parts of all of us. He finds beauty in the grotesque, joy in the pain, and reason in the madness of the world.
