This work made under the concepts of ancient Chinese calligraphy, is part of a new series Flora has been developing with the title &#8220;Imagen, caligraf\u00eda y verso&#8221; (Image, calligraphy and verse), since 2018. To lean on something is the meaning of the character that can be seen and she conceived the piece based on a spiritual point of view and deeply attached to the love of nature.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Cuc\u00fa, baja, Cuc\u00fa is a tribute to her 25-year-old parrot. It lives loose in her garden, free, and only goes to her open cage to eat or sleep, whenever she wants. It leans on the branches of the trees where there are fruits and flowers, on the highest branches closest to the sky, it feels happy. It is said that Flora always tries to make it come down.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The observation of nature was the fundamental basis of those characters in ancient China; a discourse from the Caribbean for visual enjoyment, of color, line, free and expressive textures.<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_198628\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-198628\" style=\"width: 913px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/cangrejo-en-el-manglar-t\u00e9cnica-cr\u00edlico-110x130-cm-2016-1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-198628\" src=\"https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/cangrejo-en-el-manglar-t\u00e9cnica-cr\u00edlico-110x130-cm-2016-1.jpg\" alt=\"&quot;Cangrejo en el manglar, &quot; acrylic technique, 110 \u00d7 130 cm, 2016\" width=\"913\" height=\"768\" srcset=\"https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/cangrejo-en-el-manglar-t\u00e9cnica-cr\u00edlico-110x130-cm-2016-1.jpg 913w, https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/cangrejo-en-el-manglar-t\u00e9cnica-cr\u00edlico-110x130-cm-2016-1-300x252.jpg 300w, https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/cangrejo-en-el-manglar-t\u00e9cnica-cr\u00edlico-110x130-cm-2016-1-768x646.jpg 768w, https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/cangrejo-en-el-manglar-t\u00e9cnica-cr\u00edlico-110x130-cm-2016-1-750x631.jpg 750w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 913px) 100vw, 913px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-198628\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">&#8220;Cangrejo en el manglar, &#8221; acrylic technique, 110 \u00d7 130 cm, 2016<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&#8220;It would be good for those who follow me to review the proposal of that collective exhibition and look at my proposal, made with that character of structural, conceptual and even philosophical basis; it has many readings open to the imagination that of course is well developed in the history of Chinese calligraphy until our days. Refreshing such old concepts from the Caribbean gives me the opportunity to penetrate into my own roots; that is, into my ancestors, it is an invitation to reaffirm myself as an artist who is always restless, Cuban and universal,&#8221; expressed the artist.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A few years ago City of Havana Historian Eusebio Leal, when he gave several spaces in Old Havana to some artists, also wanted her to have hers in that part of the city. &#8220;When he came here he was convinced that this was my place, that I needed nothing more to conceive my creation and that each painting was nourished by these corners and their positive vibrations. He told me that the solution was to take this site and move it to the historic center, in order to capture its inspiring essence. I gave him the same answer I gave you, that I am very home-loving and that I like to stay at home and care for all its details. That way I expanded and I built several premises right here.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_198629\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-198629\" style=\"width: 768px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/serie-ancestros-girasol-en-la-monta\u00f1a-t\u00e9cnica-acr\u00edlico-107x95-cm-2017-1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-198629\" src=\"https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/serie-ancestros-girasol-en-la-monta\u00f1a-t\u00e9cnica-acr\u00edlico-107x95-cm-2017-1.jpg\" alt=\"&quot;Ancestros, girasol en la monta\u00f1a&quot; series, acrylic technique, 107 \u00d7 95 cm, 2017\" width=\"768\" height=\"870\" srcset=\"https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/serie-ancestros-girasol-en-la-monta\u00f1a-t\u00e9cnica-acr\u00edlico-107x95-cm-2017-1.jpg 768w, https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/serie-ancestros-girasol-en-la-monta\u00f1a-t\u00e9cnica-acr\u00edlico-107x95-cm-2017-1-265x300.jpg 265w, https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/serie-ancestros-girasol-en-la-monta\u00f1a-t\u00e9cnica-acr\u00edlico-107x95-cm-2017-1-750x850.jpg 750w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-198629\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">&#8220;Ancestros, girasol en la monta\u00f1a&#8221; series, acrylic technique, 107 \u00d7 95 cm, 2017<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The creator is fascinated by large formats. From her beginnings she learned to move with great skill on immense canvases, although it is also possible to enjoy her imprint in medium and small paintings and sculptures. Those who also may come around here will be able to find this tireless woman immersed in her pictorial exercise, because discipline and perseverance characterize her. The atmosphere of this place is intoxicating, with exuberant vegetation, exotic aromas and unforgettable sounds of birds, which she has managed to translate into her creations.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In each stroke of the artist, she tries to decipher the secret of nature. Flora \u2015putting on show her name\u2015 unfolds and multiplies in flowers, leaves and trees, while moving in time with the wind, because the air, turned into hurricane, emerges among the multiple spots of lively color and defined lines. They are imbricated in her landscapes, in brilliant tones thanks to the light she employs, the magic of oriental characters with unmistakable Caribbean symbols, thus revering her ancestors and her natural habitat: the Caribbean where she breathes, gets nourishment and inspiration for her art. The insularity and its symbols mark her, because their gamut of colors are very Cuban, as well as their motives.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In her work, spontaneity is perceived together with security. Those who look at her paintings and sculptures can feel the aura of calmness, humidity, warmth and strength; the air, the rain and even the song of the birds is palpable in the work where thanks to diverse iconographies and vigorous brush strokes time seems to pass in this haven of peace where Flora gives of herself in each chromatic explosion.<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_198630\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-198630\" style=\"width: 925px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/samsung-digital-camera-1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-198630\" src=\"https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/samsung-digital-camera-1.jpg\" alt=\"&quot;Fruta Bomba Caribe,\u201d mixed technique, 110 x 130 cm, 2012\" width=\"925\" height=\"768\" srcset=\"https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/samsung-digital-camera-1.jpg 925w, https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/samsung-digital-camera-1-300x249.jpg 300w, https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/samsung-digital-camera-1-768x638.jpg 768w, https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/samsung-digital-camera-1-750x623.jpg 750w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 925px) 100vw, 925px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-198630\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">&#8220;Fruta Bomba Caribe,\u201d mixed technique, 110 x 130 cm, 2012<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Almost as we parted, I stumble on one of her unforgettable sunflowers: &#8220;I&#8217;m not interested in painting any flower.
