The "In the Muddy Quagmire" series extends from a piece I painted during my time in Cuba to my life as an immigrant in the United States. It arises from a particularly dark period, reflecting the weight of the internal and external struggles I experienced, conveying the sensation of being trapped in a restrictive and oppressive environment.
Inspired by Goya's black paintings, I used dark colors and shadows to capture a haunting atmosphere, symbolizing desolation and the challenge of facing adversity. Each piece in this series is characterized by a mixed media technique on canvas, allowing for the creation of textures and details that invite the observer to reflect on life's challenges.Try it!
