Artist: Bello
Identidad is a striking work that blends symbolism, mythology, and the visual language of contemporary Cuban art. In this piece, Bello constructs a hybrid figure—part rooster, part human—as a metaphor for cultural identity: layered, resilient, and constantly evolving. The intricate patterns that flow across the crest and feathers evoke traditional craftsmanship, while the monochromatic palette highlights the tension between heritage and modernity.
The human face embedded in the rooster's body invites viewers to reflect on the internal and external forces that shape who we are. Through its detailed textures and balanced composition, the work creates a dialogue between the ancestral and the contemporary, making Identidad both visually captivating and emotionally resonant.
Why This Piece Matters:
It embodies one of Bello’s central themes: the exploration of personal and cultural identity.
The symbolic composition and meticulous detailing make it a standout piece for collectors seeking narrative-driven works.
Ideal for contemporary interiors, private collections, and curated spaces focused on Latin American art.
Available at Amelia Gallery — The Soul of Cuban Art.
