"MAMA"

---

Gabriel Villa's work addresses issues related to class and Mexican American culture, however his creative practice is centered around a lifelong fascination with the human condition. Throughout Gabriel's career he has explored ideas connected to family, religion, desire, surveillance, and greed. Symbols of societal constructs merge with idiosyncratic imagery collected from repeated observations of life in his neighborhood of over twenty years. Gabriel enjoys the physicality and process of making, whether it is executing a public mural, alone in my studio, or most recently, working in ceramics.
