The work "Eye" brings to light the disturbing reality of how fanaticism can shape and influence our lives. Through an oppressive atmosphere and the figure of a spectral being with a single vision, the work challenges the viewer to reflect on the importance of cultivating an open mind and seeking multiple perspectives. "Eye" reminds us that obsession with a single vision can lead us away from the truth and limit our ability to live in harmony with others.

Element Analysis
The Hazy Background (Wine, Red, Black and Copper):
Background tones evoke intense and conflicting emotions. Wine and red refer to passion and fervor, while black symbolizes the unknown, fear and fanaticism. Copper adds a metallic touch, representing the rigidity of certain beliefs and the difficulty of seeing beyond them.
Visual Effect: The composition creates a sensation of suffocation and intensity, with the smoky haze representing the lack of clarity and the difficulty of perceiving reality in a broad and objective way.

The Spectral Being with a Single Eye:
The spectral being with only one eye in the center of its face symbolizes a narrow and limited vision, evoking the idea of ​​fanaticism. The absence of a mouth, nose and ears suggests a lack of expression, communication and perception. This being seems incapable of hearing other opinions or seeing beyond its own perspective.
The Single Eye: The large eye in the center is a symbol of obsession and fixation on a single point of view. It represents the danger of having a distorted view, where everything is seen through a single lens. The idea that "the gaze is fixed" reinforces the lack of flexibility and openness to new ideas.

The Atmosphere of Fear and Fanaticism:
The work suggests that when someone becomes a fanatic, they lose the ability to see the world comprehensively and isolate themselves in a single, rigid vision. The hazy and smoky environment intensifies this feeling of imprisonment in a distorted reality inflamed by uncontrolled emotions.

My name is Roberto and I am a visual artist.
Otrebor has always been present within me, since the first days I perceived the world around me. He is the manifestation of that side that matured too soon, that observed reality with a different, deeper and, at times, darker look. Since I was a child, I have been drawn to horror films, to images that others would avoid. The B side of life, the shadows that go unnoticed, have always instilled something in me, like a silent call to explore what hides beyond the surface.

My journey as an visual artist is not just an aesthetic quest, but a continuous dive into the unresolved emotions and invisible landscapes of the psyche. Through Otrebor, I invite the viewer to face discomfort, embrace the complexity of existence, and find beauty where most see only darkness.Each artwork is a portal to this introspection — a chance to reveal the B side within us all.

Otrebor's art is a reflection of this hidden side. Every brushstroke, every composition is an expression of this duality — the beauty found in darkness, the truth revealed in the deepest recesses of the human soul. Through my art, I seek to confront and explore the unknown, the unspoken, what many prefer not to see. Otrebor is the mirror of an internal universe, where shadows are not feared, but accepted as an integral part of the human experience.

These artworks are the illustrative representation of underworlds, in which scenarios and beings are created by mundane actions and emotions (or in some cases, lack thereof). They serve to expand the imagination and mainly to deepen reflection on the psyche and how we deal with thoughts.
