Words to the catalog Personal Exhibition "Baranda without railings. "

Looking at the creative world that teaches us this plastic artist, we realize its infinite diligence. Also teaches in each frame between the sienna and ocher recurrent moods and a constant search of himself. Through these lines we note the many winding roads that runs through the artist in the labyrinths of memory, which merges reality and dreams rise to these works, to realize that it is not engineer who lives in him who wanders in to make plastics, but a man who found appropriate language to express their aesthetic codes in messages that hibernated in his inner world. For more than four decades of life Baranda was drawing lines and dots, shapes and colors you store on your imagination arming themselves with tools that allowed him to create this expression today still remains a unique and very personal creative style at times evokes a Lam even Picasso at a time. In the silence of more than four decades it was motivating, convening and leading the creative flow that shows. Your spirit knows no boundaries, overflowing ideas metaphors in the assembly of configurations playing with perplexity, the licensing aesthetics and cultural hybridity of Cuban. Thus we see captivating as rising from the grower jungles, the creator of landscapes harmonic figures and human faces surprising, of totems, in multiple projections to each format mixed in with endless textures that give it an original background creaciones.Tal time to be born and raised in the town of Regla overseas in an era convulsed realities, where they joined each September Christian, Catholic, Santeria, spiritualists, nanigos and all the people in endless processions of the Virgin of Rule can explain the reading of these works that show us the language of magical realism that is going frame by frame recounting the life of a man who without fanfare of any kind, so quiet and steady at the beginning of this century left behind the rails supporting his expressive needs libertarian flew ahead of his creative imagination.
