About the Artist:
Yamila Velázquez (Las Tunas, Cuba, 1993) is a contemporary artist who uses digital intelligence tools. She currently lives and works in the city of Alicante, Spain. As the owner and partner of a company dedicated to the sale, representation, and development of artists and works of art, Velázquez combines her business vision with a deep artistic sensibility.
This young Cuban talent has made her mark in the field of digital art, using contemporary media to explore themes connected with nature, landscape, and the intimate relationship between women and their surroundings. Her works address themes such as beauty, love, sensuality, and feminine delicacy with subtlety and visual impact, always set in immersive, romantic, and refined atmospheres.
With a vibrant and expressive aesthetic, Yamila Velázquez succeeds in blending classical influences with a modern visual language, resulting in versatile, fresh, and deeply evocative works. The painterly texture of her images, her masterful use of color, and their emotionally balanced compositions establish her work as a contemporary artistic statement of considerable aesthetic value.
Shipping and Presentation:
The artwork will be carefully packed by a professional and shipped in a sturdy cardboard tube, with bubble wrap inside to ensure it remains intact during transit. Shipments are handled by reliable courier companies such as UPS, FedEx, or Correos España, depending on the destination and the most suitable option in each case.
The estimated delivery time is 7 to 10 days, although this may vary depending on the destination country.
The application of the Kintsugi concept in this work is sublime. It is not limited to a single object, but encompasses the entire space. The planets and firmament feature golden fractures that suggest the universe itself is an entity that suffers, breaks, and is rebuilt. The “gilding” technique against the deep blue and ochre transforms the solitude of space into a celebration of survival. Here, resilience is not an individual act, but a universal law.
The Little Prince, dressed in a suit that seems forged from fragments of stars and gold leaf, symbolizes an identity shaped by the journey. Each crack in his world represents an encounter, a loss, or a lesson learned. The fox, poised with serene dignity, and the rose, untouched yet vibrant, serve as anchors of memory. The work tells us that we are the result of our ruptures; that our scars—like those on the canvas—are what make us unique and “essential.”
The composition uses a texture that evokes ancient stucco and cracked ceramics, lending the image a timeless patina. By bringing together literature’s most beloved pop-culture character and the aesthetic of Kintsugi, the artist conveys that the beauty of imperfection is the highest form of perfection. It is an invitation to embrace our own fragility, understanding that, just like the worlds inhabited by the young prince, our broken parts are what allow the light (the gold) to shine more brightly.
