On February 7 presents, in the new MONDO Gallery (formerly CRM), the exhibition "Oxygeme", first solo exhibition of Pablo Pro in Spain. The treatment of bodies, water and oxygen, given as a series of compositions results surprising.

In the words of Pablo Pro "Oxygeme is a journey into the origin of life that comes from my need to discover forgotten feelings."

Five questions to Pablo Pro

What is Oxygeme?

Oxygeme an audiovisual project.
It is a project in which I use the bubble as a metaphor for life.
The bubble travels upward path until you reach the surface. A harmonious Itinerary, without putting up resistance to the process, which ends when it arrives.
End of life cycle and other begins again

Where does Oxygeme?

Oxygeme is a journey into the origin of life that comes from my need to discover forgotten feelings.

How important is this work today?

Oxygeme is a series of visual metaphors.
The parallel, which I make between the bubble and ourselves, I believe the being, also a unit, consists of thousands of particles. We, however we resist the process, and we build mental barriers that hinder the harmonious ascension.

What's Oxygeme before and after?

A much deeper understanding and a need to continue exploring, I want build bridges between artist and audience.

Who is behind Oxygeme?

I come from film photography, I have worked for years as a cinematographer and camera operator in New York, Los Angeles and Madrid. "Oxygeme" is my audiovisual project in which the dancers with the support of the Asociación Cultural Inspiral Ibiza think the metaphor of the bubble. My previous series was "Desiertos sobre Desiertos" and am currently working on a new project on Shamanism and lost traditions.
