Marble (1981-1983 and 1990-1992)



In 1981 Pablo started to apply marble structure in his ceramics for the first time. So books with a "marble" cover came into being. This was something to pursue, he thought, but it still took about ten years before he resumed this path.
In 1990 he vistited the Porcelain and Ceramics Fair in Frankfurt, Germany. There he found new materials which fitted excellently with the still slumbering idea to create "marble" statues. The technique he used seemed both simple and refined. However it appeared not to be that simple at all. Every now and then it was a real struggle and it drove him to dispair. But at the same time the challenge to get perfect command of the matter increased.
