Relicário
Pedro Liñares’ first solo exhibition at Kubik Gallery featured a series of paintings that evoke everyday objects and places imbued with sentimental value, transformed into symbols of protection. Small relics and personal talismans serve as the starting point for a series of new works. The artist appropriates images and symbols, sometimes more explicit, sometimes more subtle, creating a narrative that obliquely engages with dreams, memories, and shared experiences.
