Perhaps inspired by the fabulous storytelling in novelist Gabriel García Márquez's most famous book, One Hundred Years of Solitude, Fabelo has adopted a similar style of magical realism for his highly enchanting art. Fascinated by myths, dreams and fairy tales, the Havana-based artist employs both caricature and symbolism—in the form of animals, nudes and everyday objects—to convey his personal and social concerns. Creating hybrid creatures that confront good and evil, the beautiful and the grotesque, and what's imaginary and what's real, Fabelo creates a fantastic vision of life from a distinctive personal point of view.
