Statement

As happens in Greek ceramics, the narrations that we can observe in the works of Cesc Abad, try to explain certain actions that can be as daily as desire, lust, mystery or passion, all of them concepts that are intrinsically attached to human nature. The reading or interpretation in his ceramics can be done from bottom to top, from right to lett or in the opposite direction, which allows the viewer to enjoy different stories or moments that enrich the condition of man, In a certain way, they are somewhat reminiscent of the Sumerian bas-reliefs, whose stories were configured in bands or registers around the vessel and whose initial content was very religious and votive. Figures seated or in procession, as well as animals, also appear in them, transferring a narrative register to the pieces.
