Originally from northern Mexico, she holds a degree in Communication Sciences from Universidad Iberoamericana, Laguna campus. Her academic background has influenced her ability to construct narrative-driven imagery and develop a distinctive visual language within contemporary figurative painting.

This early immersion shaped her intuitive understanding of artistic processes and laid the foundation for her professional path as a Mexican figurative painter.

Editorial – Issue 84

It seems that nowadays art is measured with a calculator in hand. Every canvas, every sculpture, every installation is first considered for its investment potential and only then, if at all, for what it might evoke in the viewer. What was once an intimate encounter with creativity, an almost sacred experience between the work and the observer, has gradually been transformed into a transaction. Art has become a financial product: it is auctioned, speculated upon, collected... and, far too often, forgotten.

Editorial – Issue 83

Sometimes the world seems to move too fast. Uncertainty, anxiety, and the constant rhythm of everyday life can easily overwhelm us. In the middle of that noise, art appears as a refuge: a place where we can breathe, pause for a moment, and reconnect with something deeper within ourselves. This month we celebrate painting as that vibrant and protective space. Color, light, and form have the power to move us, to slow our thoughts, and to remind us that wonder still exists. Each artwork becomes a small pause in the day, an invitation to look carefully, to imagine freely, and to rediscover the quiet pleasure of contemplation.

Danco Robert Duportai: Memory, Silence and Fragment

Duportai studied at the Provincial Academy of Fine Arts Eduardo Abela in San Antonio de los Baños before graduating from the National Academy of Fine Arts San Alejandro in Havana. He began painting consciously at the age of ten, a moment he describes as the beginning of a compulsion rather than a choice.

Now living and working in Mexico, the young Cuban artist has developed a distinctive visual language through dreamlike oil paintings that merge classical technique with a contemporary sensibility. Rooted in academic realism, his work unfolds slowly, constructing scenes marked by introspection, silence, and a sustained narrative tension.
