Term: August – October ’24
“Deciding where you are born has never been an option for humans. You are born and that’s it. From there you must chart your destiny at the same time as you live it.
Meanwhile, I had to be born on an Island (Cuba) – the largest – in the middle of the Caribbean. On this Island, mixed and contradictory feelings are on the surface, since the times when beings – once they felt they belonged – fell in and out of love with its charms. That’s how I grew up and gained a different sensitivity for what I saw around me and found a form of expression in the visual arts. I studied and graduated from the San Alejandro National Academy of Fine Arts (2020) and later, from the University of the Arts (ISA) in Visual Arts (2024).
I develop my artistic work in different media ranging from painting, collage, video, installation, performance, happening and relational art forms. I am interested in talking about topics related to limits, physical or thought, always playing with the idea of trying to blur, change, or expand them. I start from the relationship with concepts such as territoriality, non-place, experience, unlimited-limit as a search to find forms of freedom in the art.
