"William Gaber has worked for several years with the gazes of the characters in his work. Inspired by various theories such as Euclid's 'Optics (Ὀπτική)', which speaks of rays emitted from the eyes that strike an object to be observed, and 'The Observer Effect', which refers to the transformative power of a gaze, among others. Gaber plays with this concept and bestows new powers upon his gazes, creating an original, fresh, intelligent, critical work with a great sense of aesthetics. Embodying a clueless lamb that ended up encountering the artist's lens on a beach in Costa Rica. Gaber talks about the ability to look again from who we are at that moment, to create memories, invent our history, build from observation and our experience a new character who looks at the world for the first time."- William Gaber

William Gaber (Mexico, 1968) is a multidisciplinary artist whose work explores the human condition in constant transformation and its relationship with architecture as a witness to memory and a container of life experience. Self-taught, with complementary training at institutions such as the Royal College of Art in London, he works between Mexico City, Yucatan, and Madrid. His practice spans painting, drawing, and sculpture, and is characterized by a rigorous visual language, rich in color, irony, and critical sense. Influenced by the tropical landscape of his childhood and the vernacular architecture of Merida, Gaber proposes a poetics of change, adaptation, and resilience, where art becomes a tool for reflection on identity, history, and the social. His work is part of private, institutional, and public collections.
