The Agua de Noche series was inspired by a story I was told while in Cuba. A woman's story about her son who left Cuba by boat in the dead of night. She never heard from him again; two years had passed and she was alone on the coast with the ocean reminding her of all she did not know. I heard stories of clothing that washed up on the shore. That is where this series came from. These stories. The lost ones. Despite this bleak reality, the work is also about hope and dreams, and freedom. About chance, struggle, and loss.
