Paul Setúbal
Overview
Paul Setúbal explores the different aspects and strength of the human body and its condition as a physicality in the world. Throughout his production it becomes clear the importance of the presence of a work that resembles the materiality of the happenings and the objects that surround us. Paul pieces reflect on the impermanence of life, body and how it changes and affects us as part of the world. The artist work as well with symbols represented in his works through the lens of the Brazilian culture and religions.
