Critique the inequalities associated with skin color and show that everyone is "colored," we are all the same.
Cuban artist currently living in Germany; in 2005 he graduated from the Academy of Fine Arts San Alejandro, one of the most important academies in Latin America and the second oldest in America. He has exhibited his work in numerous galleries and different countries such as Spain, the United States, Mexico, Argentina, Cuba, Germany, the United Kingdom and has participated in important biennials such as the Havana Biennial (in 2012 and 2015), the Liverpool Art Fair at Bridewell Studios (in 2012) and the Venice Biennial (in 2015) as part of the Imago Mundi collection of Luciano Benetton. He currently works as an independent artist.
"Heads and busts of various people are predominant in his work. He uses saturated and intense colors that seem to "scream" waiting to come out of the frame. The patches of color on the canvas look like a collage; they criticize the inequalities related to skin color and show that everyone is "of color", we are all the same, beyond wealth or education... In this way, the artist wants to emphasize that there are no social or racial differences."
Currently this artist is only exhibited in our online gallery.
