"My work stems from the conviction that art is a bridge: between personal and collective memory, between inner life and the world we inhabit. As an artist I explore how identity is transported, transformed, and healed through the creative act.
I work across multiple disciplines—sculpture, painting, digital art, and wearable art—because each medium offers a different gateway to the same territory: our shared human history. Clay connects me to the voices of the ancient Americas. Wood and color carry the energy of movement and ritual. Digital tools expand possibilities, linking tradition with innovation. Through these materials, I weave symbols of ancestry, nature, faith, and resilience.
Education is inseparable from my art; it is part of its purpose. Designing experiences that invite the public to touch, interact, and reconstruct images transforms viewers into co-creators, reminding us that culture is alive and built collectively.
In recent years, healing and hope have become central to my work. Following personal experiences related to health, I began creating pieces that celebrate resilience and the inner light guiding us through uncertainty. For me, art is a path back to wholeness—it honors our roots while simultaneously inspiring transformation.
I create art to connect. To keep stories alive. To celebrate courage, light, and the mystery of life."

On the cobblestone streets of Havana, whispers of stories dance in the Caribbean breeze. Between the vibrant colors and the melodies of Cuban son, stories are born that slide along the Malecón, narrating lost loves and dreams that awaken in every corner. Crossing the sea, is San Juan, where the cobblestone streets of Old San Juan shelter legends of pirates and conquests.

We value cultural travel based on the idea that we can learn about ourselves and others when we embark on journeys to different cultural contexts. Our journeys to Cuba and Puerto Rico are framed by our understanding, respect and appreciation of the historical contributions made by their people in the fields of arts, community education and general wellness.
