In Geisha Pouring Sake, Fabian Perez brings his signature blend of sensuality, elegance, and deep emotion to a rare outdoor setting. The piece features a graceful woman in a moment of quiet focus, kneeling in a traditional kimono as she pours sake with delicate precision. Her posture exudes a sense of reverence and concentration, while the vibrant patterns of her kimono contrast beautifully with the soft, muted tones of the natural world around her. The scene is tranquil, yet imbued with a palpable energy that draws the viewer in.
What sets this artwork apart from much of Perez’s signature style is its departure from the dark, shadowed interiors that often characterize his work. Instead, this piece places the geisha in an outdoor setting, where the natural light subtly illuminates her movements, creating a soft play of highlights and shadows. The delicate interplay of light, color, and form elevates the geisha’s focused, serene presence, inviting contemplation on themes of beauty and tradition.

Fabian Perez’s artwork finds its roots in his unorthodox upbringing. born in Buenos Aires in 1967, Perez grew up catching glimpses of the nightlife at his father’s nightclubs and bordellos. With his artistic mother and roguish father, Perez saw the glamour and romance of the world they inhabited: passionate and elegant, refined and secretive. Now, his memories of those stylish and fascinating characters populate his work.
After losing both parents before his twenties, Perez began to travel the world, developing his artistic talents as he did so. He also discovered martial arts, and studied with a dedication that would later impact the discipline he used to perfect his art style.
After his career took off while he was working in Italy, Perez experienced a growing recognition and fame for his now famous art style. He eventually moved to the US, where accolades and admiration for his art has continued to grow. He now lives and works in Los Angeles, still creating work and touring to interact with his always expanding group of followers.
