Maykel Herrera:
The spiritual in art
By: Onedys Calvo Noya, City Historian's Art
As an abstract artist, Maykel Herrera (born in Camaguey in 1979) has ignored vogues in art to create a work that serves her perception between concrete reality and spiritual complexities. Her artistic gifts have allowed her to dip, with greater or less profundity, into different methods of art expression.
The subjects in her paintings always appear protected by a shining aura that is at once mystifying and obvious, in a clear balance between the sublime and the material.
She is an artist who narrates existential situations that impart mental and sentimental states. That is Herrera's guideline which has coherently guided her career until today.
