What’s in a person’s mind for him to conjure images of creepiness and horror?
Are these eerie expressions of anger, unrequited love, curtailed emotions?
Does his work represent a genius artist probably trapped in ghoulish childhood?
In person, Gabby Barredo strikes me as someone kind, warm, and unassuming. I’ve met him twice and he exudes genuine sweetness and gentleness.
He remains humble despite his works now gaining international popularity.
Louis Vuitton bought his whole collection of clocks. I saw a Micky Mouse standing on a black pedestal with a calendar and I thought hmmm, this is so cute and not creepy at all. Bagay sa kwarto ng anak ko. I asked him how much and he said it’s been bought as part of the whole collection. LV pala and I have the same taste!
I could not imagine a happy and fulfilled human being creating images of pain, darkness, suffering. For example, he likes to put moving hands. The hands for me are people reaching out for help.

I wonder what’s in Gabby’s genius mind. I want to know what’s in his heart.
There was supposed to be a stripper pero he backed-out yata because the venue was not big enough. He might knock-off the art pieces. So, no birds this time.
This is not the stripper.
