About

Gabriel Paiz is a self-taught contemporary artist born in Guatemala City (1987), shaped by a quiet spiritual force and a love for art and music. His work occupies a rare threshold between the visible and the veiled where form, silence, color and ancestral memory converge. His paintings emerge as relics from a forgotten realm where myth and human essence still pulse beneath the surface.

​

Working primarily with acrylic and mixed media on cotton, Gabriel’s practice blends refined materiality with an ancient, almost medieval fresco-like sensibility. His figures, often stripped of time and identity, inhabit a symbolic landscape that while rooted in modern composition, his work rejects trend and embraces timelessness. 

​

Gabriel’s work appeals to collectors seeking more than beauty, those drawn to meaning, to quiet opulence, and to the invisible threads that connect art to ancestry and the eternal.
