About this Event
Join us for an afternoon of art, reflection, and connection as mixed media artist Braulio Sanabria shares his collection The Other Side of Light at The Metta Space. Guests are invited to explore the work, and meet the artist.
About the Artist
Braulio Sanabria is a mixed media artist whose work explores the boundary between the natural and the imagined. Blending traditional materials such as crayon, beeswax, and acrylic paint with found elements—tree bark, leaves, and fragments of the living world—Braulio creates richly textured pieces that feel both familiar and otherworldly.
Central to his practice is the transformative role of light. Through subtle illumination and the use of contrast, Braulio invites viewers to experience shifting perspectives and hidden narratives that reveal themselves through openness and close attention. In his work, light becomes a guide, a disruptor, and a companion—illuminating what is often overlooked.
Art, for Braulio, is a language used to calm the mind and transform thought. Shaped by the experience of losing everything at a young age and redefining himself multiple times, The Other Side of Light reflects his lived journey and the idea that even the smallest hint of light can create profound change.
About the Collection
The Other Side of Light is an exploration of tension—between shadow and illumination, fragility and structure. Each piece acts as a portal, encouraging viewers to move beyond surface appearances and encounter the quiet, unseen worlds that exist within our universe.
Why The Metta Space
Debuting this collection at a health and wellness space like The Metta Space holds deep meaning for the artist. A place dedicated to emotional and spiritual connection offers a natural alignment with the intention behind the work. Just as The Metta Space empowers others through healing and reflection, Braulio’s studio practice serves as a place of grounding, creativity, and renewal—mirroring the mission of the space itself.
Artist Poem - The Other Side of Light
As the light bends it transforms
As the shadow grows it’s a new form
The light we see creates a feeling of life
The life we experience – feeling with might
We are the Other Side of Light
— Braulio Sanabria
