Description of the Artwork “CHRISTINE”
This piece is part of the Umbral collection, which explores states of post-life consciousness where we are confronted by our inner monsters. Once we leave the physical body, our fears, anxieties, anguish, guilt, and unresolved issues have nowhere left to hide, emerging fully exposed, like a skull without skin. The portraits in this collection tell these stories, inviting the viewer to confront their own demons. "Christine" portrays deceit as a living entity, breathing in the shadows and feeding on vulnerability. The skeletal presence, with its dark aura and destructive features, reflects the moral and emotional void that deceit can create, both internally and within relationships. The long, distorted tongue serves as a visual warning against deceptive words, while the blood suggests the inevitable consequences of a life built on lies and manipulation. This work encapsulates the emotional weight of deceit, transforming it into a striking and unsettling visual form.
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.
