Description of the Artwork “THE MEMORY REMAINS”
The artwork captures the essence of trauma, sadness and memory as forces that resist time. "The Memory Remains" is not just a representation of a soldier, but a reflection of the internal struggle for peace and understanding of the atrocities experienced. The smoky lines and smaller specters highlight the souls of friends lost in combat, making the soldier a figure who carries the memories and pains not only of himself, but also of his comrades who have passed away.
Artwork in the interior
Otrebor, Portugal
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 artist is not just an aesthetic quest, but an ongoing 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 work 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 corners 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.
