Rubens Ghenov on his folkloric drawings, intertwining symbols from his native Brazil to that of his current residence in the US. Done in charcoal and ink, Ghenovs work develops into narrative as he explores his own faith and connection to spirituality.

    This is really great, David! I’m fascinated by this guy. I’m fascinated by the space he’s in. I’m fascinated by his characters and his different sets of characters. Drums? Dostoevsky? Faith? This guy is wicked cool. and he focuses on cool ways to do drawings, too. Man. I’m sold. No way I’m going to be able to get to the opening but maybe I can get out there this weekend. Thanks for making this!
