Pablo Yubero
History
In Madrid, Pablo Yubero works with wood as a living material. Coming from a family involved in cabinetmaking, he grew up surrounded by wood shavings, tools, and the smell of freshly cut wood. Influenced by Japanese forms and simple balances, he turns, sands, and oils each piece by hand to reveal the natural variations of the material rather than conceal them. Here, no sculpture seeks perfection: each piece retains its irregularities, its grain, its own rhythm.
His pieces are handmade from various types of wood (ash, amaranth, iroko, oak, walnut, African padauk, etc.), and each model is unique.
