Hiorsh Gabotto
My name is Jorge Luis Gabotto, or Hiorsh, I am an Argentine cartoonist and writer. I was born in Mar del Plata, a tourist city on the Atlantic coast. I am a Visual arts teacher, puppeteer and musician, I have always liked to narrate, and I did it whenever I had the opportunity, from telling a movie, singing a song or just telling a joke. The comic, for me, is the concretion of many arts together, a stylistic summit that combines several languages for narration. The comic and the illustration are: drawing, plastic expression evocative of techniques such as perspective, color management, the human figure, etc. And the comic is literature, narrative, climates, tensions and beauty in words. I look for each image to trigger situations in the mind of the viewer. Comic is cinema, it is movement, they are lights and cameras that play roles from the reader-spectator complicity. It is many things I approach you with the intention of presenting something of my world, because when making stories it is impossible to get rid of ourselves. Just what I want to show you refers to the world, love and time, the perceptions and illusions that build us.
