THE BLUE FLESH

Besides narrations of Christianity − Pieta or crucification − and depictions of Hindu deities, Don Pablo Pedro’s tempting paintings are reminiscent of miniatures − Levni, end of 17th Century, Ottoman Period as an example − or 16th century anatomy drawings. A third eye evocative of a bleeding vagina, several faces protruding from the same surface and pinkish tongues trying to reach another body that is beyond their capabilities…  The erotic scenes Pedro creates with hybrid characters are grotesque with their flesh, multiple body parts and attractive pop colours.
