Luis Abreux is an interdisciplinary artist who engages in artistic practice regarding identity and connection. Using drawing, painting, collages, photography, objects, and sculpture, Abreux explores his cultural identity and heritage. His art holistically represents a storytelling timeline that expresses a myriad of his lived experiences that changes alongside his perspective on life. ​Abreux obtained a Master's of Fine Art degree specializing in Painting, in 1995 from the San Alejandro Art Academy in Havana, Cuba. He also attended the Taller de Tecnicas Subliminales en el Arte y la Publicidad. He escaped Cuba in 2005 and resides in AustinWith a deliberate creative process, Abreux aims to evoke emotion with his work. Abreux believes that visuals influence and allow the viewer to travel and find new creative dialogue that ultimately lead to creating new solutions. The human, the immigrant, the memory, the interactions of constant escape and the experiences of interminable travel leading the way, the canvas or the paper. His work absorbs and melts the before and now, the fantasy and the reality pictured in a surrealist diary that births real experiences and the absurdities of an experiment. Drawings, collages, mixed techniques, and all other mediums are used to support Abruex’ diverse formats.
