Several trips to Cuba since 2001 are reflected in this series of paintings. The layers of transformation and vitality of the street contain imagery that I first record in sketches, later translating and 'reinventing' them in the studio.Our collective, La Raza Artists, exhbited a series of Mylar paintings, mine in collaboration with Ether Rausenberg, in Santiago de Cuba in the Provincial gallery ((2010). Working with artists from the Taller in Santiago and a team of artists, we painted a collaborative mural called Point of Contact, located along a main artery in the city.
