About the pieces
The works continue his exploration of form and pattern, using shapes, colors, and compositions evocative of biological, botanical, geological, and mechanical structures.
Reef 08; 2015; 41″ x 31″, stained and unstained wood.
Finding inspiration in fractals, accretive formations, and the Fibonacci sequence, Abarbanel creates art that often simultaneously evokes microscopic and aerial perspectives, such that the compositions serve as metaphors for archetypal relationships between people, between individuals and communities, and between humankind and the planet.

His work also illustrates how disparate parts can come together to make a whole in beautiful and startling ways.
