Gabriel Navar's Art

Paintings and Poems

In my paintings and poems, I explore the human condition as it relates to and is tightly interwoven with our natural and urban landscapes as well as with entities and institutions such as culture, religion, politics, and consumer products.

The images I paint often mirror my belief and understanding that everything is interconnected in a cultural, spiritual, and political embrace. The energy behind my work is my profound love for the earth, the divine, and art.
