Francisco Rubiel Osorio Faber is an American-Austrian-Colombian artist, born in the United States in 1983. He grew up between Cali, Colombia, and New York City, and today lives in Vienna, Austria. Moving between these places has shaped the way he sees himself and the world around him.

He works mainly with painting, drawing from nature, memory, abstraction, and everyday experience .

“We wanted to know what belonging means. We need to do something to show the people that you are exactly like me, but different, and this difference is part of you. This is a new energy that you are bringing to make our country better and not worse.” In our latest interview, we talked with Mexican visual artist, curator, and cultural manager Sonia Siblik to discuss her artistic journey, curatorial vision, and her work featured in the Belonging Across Borders exhibition at the Yunus Emre Institute Gallery in Vienna. 🇦🇹 With a rich background in pedagogy and therapeutic education, Sonia brings a deeply humanistic perspective to her practice. As the founder of LichTraum by Sonia Siblik and BasementArt in Vienna’s 9th district, she has dedicated years to fostering international, intercultural, and interdisciplinary collaboration across the arts. Sonia also took part in “Wir bewegen die Welt” (We Move the World) a collaborative acrylic triptych symbolizing connection, responsibility, and shared human journeys. Featuring a central heart whose delicate threads reach toward surrounding gears, a compass, and a world map, it reflects how we simultaneously inhabit and shape the systems around us. 🏷️ Buy Online: Purchase the original artworks via GalaBid at ⁠app.galabid.com/icdo⁠ (or tap the link in our bio). “Belonging Across Borders: Art as a Bridge for Memory and Reconciliation” - The Long Nights of Interculturality 2026 Location: Yunus Emre Institute Gallery, Vienna Dates: September 23, 2026 – October 20, 2026 #icdo #vienna #culture #art #viennaculture by @icdo.at
“Water crosses territories without belonging to a single place, carrying memory while continuously transforming.” In our latest interview, we talked with Vienna-based transdisciplinary artist Juliana Herrero @julianaherrero_art and discussed her compelling work, “After the Current” (2026), featured in the ICDO’s Belonging Across Borders exhibition at the Yunus Emre Institute Gallery in Vienna. 🇦🇹 Being from Argentina, moving between South America and Europe, Juliana’s practice explores displacement as a form of multiple belonging. Born from underwater experiences in Vienna’s Old Danube, her piece uses ink, acrylic, milfoil debris, and imprints from repurposed market nets to capture the fluid boundaries between human perception and nature.
