Humanity has one consciousness.This, I try to communicate through my art.My style is a synthesis of all time and cultures Background Robles was born on December 20,1965 in Paramaribo,Suriname.This small country in South America is one of the most culturally diverse places on earth.At the age of 6,his family moved to Europe,and spend the next 14 years in Holland,Germany,and then the United States. At 20 he decided to return to Amsterdam where he currently lives and works. His inspiration comes from mass media, and painters like Picasso and surrealist,Dali. From these influences Robles has shaped his unique style.In his own personal way he brings the world together in his art | |
The themes of Robles's art reflect his Fin de siecle approach to humanity: One stands still and looks back as well as ahead in his existence. Where is humanity at the beginning of the 21st century? What will the future bring? Collective symbolism is constantly evolving and changing. The dramatic social perception of the new millennium offers the opportunity for reassessment of time gone by, and conscious evolution from it. Robles offers the his unique symbolism as a positive contribution to this global process. He believes art should challenge us to look deeper beneath the surface, into the soul. It should be spiritual and open our imaginations, echoing both the past and the future. | |
