Tedjakula’s horsebath
(Covarrubias series)
watercolour & charcoal

150x180 cm
2013
Alleblas’ artwork consists of
charcoal and pencil drawings,
prints and watercolours
of different sizes. The drawings
have a figurative, narrative atmosphere
and show a world
in which often-unexpected relations
between different elements
confront the viewer with
unclear feelings and certain confusion; beautiful but
odly mysterious, disquieting.
The work is not so much influenced by the art historical
context, but is more related to a wider view of
human experience, relations between cultures and relations
between the self and other. The protagonists,
whether human or animal, are enigmatic, elusive and
seem absorbed in their own world.
