Wepa!

I'm thrilled to share my latest piece with you—it's a hand-carved print of a jíbaro, proudly wearing the iconic Puerto Rican pava hat, carrying a bunch of plantains on his way home. This artwork captures the essence of our culture and heritage in a way that I hope resonates deeply with all of us.

To me, this piece symbolizes so much more than just a jíbaro with plantains. It represents our connection to the land, our resilience, and the simple joys of life. The jíbaro, with his pava hat, embodies our rural traditions and the hard work that sustains us. Carrying plantains—an essential part of our diet and culture—he reminds us of the abundance and richness of our island.

For us, Puerto Ricans, this artwork is a reminder of where we come from and the values that define us. It celebrates our strong sense of community and family, rooted in traditions passed down through generations. It's a call to embrace our identity proudly, to preserve our cultural heritage, and to support one another in our journey.

Let this artwork inspire us to cherish our roots, to protect our environment, and to honor our ancestors by living with integrity and love for our island. Together, let's continue to uphold our traditions, nurture our land, and build a future where our culture thrives. ¡Adelante, familia!
