Festival del Caribe July 3rd. 2011, Santiago de Cuba.
My 6 Orisha Sculptures stood in a semicircle on the huge stage of Heredia Theatre, in front of big triangles, and at the opening of the spectacle, the orisha dancers jumped out from behind each sculpture: After years of working on the sculptures, I could not have imagined anything so fantastic than seeing the sculptures in such a beautifully lit and lively setting. They are going to be on display this summer at the entrance of the Government Palace at Parque Cespedes. I got applause, from the 3000 and more strong audience, after the director of the Casa del Caribe Señor Vergés mentioned that I had donated the Orisha sculptures to the Casa del Caribeñ and everyone in Cuba knows who each one represents, in these photos they are waiting to go.
