Summary:

"Pablo's sculptures have an open relationship with the concept of tools. An exploratory relationship that tries out different systems. In his first exhibitions the artistic object was a sort of tool for study. But by Cae la tarde [Dusk Falls, 2016], Lontano [Remote, 20171. Nubes de paso [Passing Clouds, 2018] and Núcleo [Nucleus, 20191, this functional core appears to have integrated a new purpose that I interpret as being ceremonial, closer to the functional models of Lygia Clark and Hélio Oiticica. The artwork as focused on an energetic core as a kind of instrument to emphasize the sensations of being alive with no need to reconcile contrasts within a system of rational units. The interesting thing is that all tools are accompanied by their opposite, an awareness of death that dates all the way back to the beginning of humanity. That which annuls and denies the value of the action of the tool. This irreconcilable opposition defines our mental state: in fact, funeral art appeared alongside the first rudimentary stone tools. So, there's being alive, the uses of a tool, expecting something and awareness of death." --Page 195.
