Simon Raab works in a unique medium, he coined and patented as "Parleau", whose etymology is French for 'through the water.' Multiple layers of colored polymers are applied to stainless steel and aluminum and then "crushed" or sculpted to give the appearance of an image just under the surface of water. The art is presented as either a wall-mounted painting with embedded frames, or as a freestanding volumetric sculpture. Raab's work is characterized by brilliant colors, figurative abstractions, and most often conveys some underlying philosophical message.
