About the artist:
Yamila Velázquez (Las Tunas, Cuba, 1993) is a contemporary artist who uses digital intelligence tools; she currently lives and works in Alicante, Spain. Owner and partner of a company dedicated to the sale, representation, and development of artists and artworks, Velázquez combines her business vision with a deep artistic sensibility.
This young Cuban talent has established herself in the field of digital art, using contemporary media to explore themes related to nature, landscape, and the intimate relationship between woman and her environment. Her works delicately and forcefully address themes such as beauty, love, sensuality, and feminine delicacy, always framed in enveloping, romantic, and refined atmospheres.
With a vibrant and expressive aesthetic, Yamila Velázquez manages to fuse classical influences with a modern language, resulting in versatile, fresh, and deeply evocative works. The painterly texture of her images, the masterful use of color, and the emotionally balanced composition position her work as a contemporary artistic proposal of high aesthetic value.

This work is a bold deconstruction of the modern myth embodied in Darth Vader. The character, a symbol of oppression and dark technology, has been subverted by being depicted with white and blue porcelain armor, evoking the delicacy of Ming porcelain and adorned with patterns suggesting a luxury monogram. This contrasts his brutal power with the fragility of a piece of art.

The piece adheres to the principle of Kintsugi—the glorification of repair—but reinterprets it in a dramatic and symbolic way. A cataclysmic crack runs across the helmet and shoulder of the figure. Instead of gold sealing and healing, this crack is filled with a glowing red light, the pure energy of the dark side or the vital wound of the character.

The armor details are complemented by golden filigree that edges the porcelain, reinforcing the idea that Vader’s identity is a construction of maximal value, yet deeply damaged. The red light is not healing; it is a latent and active memory of pain, transformed into an inexhaustible source of power. The work is a powerful meditation on how trauma (the fracture) defines and feeds a being’s identity, transforming vulnerability into an aesthetic and conceptually indispensable force.
