 As an artist - the fashion concept seems to me absurd -  especially in Cuba, where to be in or even out of creative perspectives of fashion it is necessary to take one of the only two sides that exist in my country - or  against - or for.

In my case I dont care about respectives concepts - I am an artist and my creations are - apolitical.

I love Cuba, and for me - art is Universal. 

I am neither within the appearances of a fake counter-culture - I am dada ☀️

That is why all my ideas as a creator start from performative artworks and have their history - DADA86 History, so it is a pleasure to be able to share them with you today. 

The whole journey of my path of creation of DADA86 ☀️ - the First Universal  -  brand coming from Cuba and its exhibited around the world for 6 years in total freedom - will be shared on this page ☀️



☀️DADA86 is not a fake imposture - is why I invite you here - inner the Sun is only One.

Inner Rain ⚡

The realization of this work is a direct confrontation between reality and its representation.
Intervening in the visual field of a visually impaired person whose wish was to see Paris, I transcribed my photographs into Braille to fulfill her dream. "Rose" is for Laura and all visually impaired people, who can feel reality not with their eyes, but with their hearts.

Synopsis ~ Wikipedia Net

The off-screen is the set of elements that do not appear in the frame of an image. This expression refers in particular to the
part of the scene that does not appear in a film shot because it is not intercepted by the field of the camera's optics,
whether this field is invariable...

Hors - champ

 
Hi Friends,

Before you attend the braille reading – realized by my friend Javier;

A brief background about the basis of my architecture Dada86 Art Library– for visually impaired people and artists.

In 2009, when I lived in the city of Madrid, I met a wonderful person – Laura, who worked selling lottery tickets in a small ticket booth – where next to her was her beautiful dog – a golden Labrador. One day when I was a bit overwhelmed, I passed by her work place, and chatting for a while, I was struck by how happy Laura was, although for her it was impossible to see the world, to see the sky, to see the sun.
Laura said to me:

– Hey , don’t be sad, look! You can see!
I would like to see Paris, for example…. – Is the city of love!

And even if I buy a ticket and go there – I won’t see anything!

Of course it will be even more complicated to travel with my dog.


At that moment, looking at her dog’s eyes through the lottery window, I realized that Laura was right – anyway, I could travel to the city of love!
I could see the sun, the sky! I have everything!
To express my gratitude to Laura for her inner vision, it occurred to me to take a portrait of her dog, so I didn’t hesitate to the next day bring my 35m Pentax K1000 camera and take a beautiful portrait of her.
It was a sunny morning and she was very happy to have a memory with her dog.
I then brought the picture to relief so that she could save it, and see it whenever she wanted to.
Time went by, and one of my best friends – Alice, invited me to Paris – where I came up with the idea of documenting my trip through my camera, and embossing all the photos for Laura.
At that time, I realised that reliefs were extremely expensive, and not all of them had good definition, so I had to create my own technique – and make all the relief photos myself by hand.
That’s how – Rose came about – an installation curated by Elvis Fuentes and exhibited at the Kumu Museum – Tallinn.

In 2011 – already living and studying cinema in the city of love and lights – where I didn’t hesitate to move to, after my trip – Karucel was born – the first 16mm film I wrote and directed, and where instead of working with actors – I worked with a visually impaired couple – both guided by love.
My producer Karlyn Sovied – screamed with gasps when I told her – I didn’t want to work with actors, but to capture the invisible to the human eye – so I did.
For this piece I had to create a relief storyboard, and it was wonderful to explore the direction of light before the invisible.
The most beautiful thing about the film – at presentations and festivals – is that no one noticed that the protagonists were visually impaired – I worked with their abilities, putting aside the disability.

Through my artistic experience – in 2016 the intellectual bricks for the construction of my architecture concept – adapted to visually impaired people and artists – emerged.

The new perspective of my ceation – is based on the ability of visually impaired people, and not on their disability.

              Synopsis

        Styx is a reflection on the soul through water. Associating the theme of the passage from life to death that the famous mythological river carries to an abstract aquatic universe I propose a metaphorical experience of the body towards the unknown, the soul.

        Finalist in "Contemporary Talents" Francois Schneider Foundation. 2015



Styx

As a filmmaker and painter, to capture the dearest moments of our lives, I developed my own method visual and sound recording, which allows us to preserve the integral moments of our lives, that is the meaning of the River movement.

The heart of the movement is a return to purity and innocence, as well as the ability to share these moments with loved ones.

River movement offer a completely new way of ～～～～ mise en scène ～～ film that shows and explores the beauty of the present moment in nature and people.

The first film exhibited as part of the movement is ～～ “SkyRiver” a poetic journey under the skies of Paris, in search of the invisible.
