Gilberto Romero works primarily with metal and stone. Through his shape, line, color and use of negative and positive space, viewers can experience freedom, flow and playful wonderment. He is an avid outdoorsman and finds the majority of his inspiration from nature. “I see shapes everywhere”, he stated during his interview with the CHVAC, his patient nature helps him listen as the stones “speak” with the possibility of becoming part of a future piece.
