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 sensitivity.
This young Cuban talent has established himself in the field of digital art, using contemporary media to explore themes related to nature, landscape, and the intimate relationship between women and their environment. His works subtly and visually powerfully address topics such as beauty, love, sensuality, and feminine delicacy, always set within immersive, romantic, and refined atmospheres.
With a vibrant and expressive aesthetic, Yamila Velázquez manages to blend classical influences with a modern language, resulting in versatile, fresh, and deeply evocative works. The pictorial texture of her images, the masterful use of color, and the emotionally balanced composition position her work as a current artistic proposal of high aesthetic value.

This powerful bust sculpture transcends individual figuration to offer a conceptual commentary on the global condition. The piece depicts a female figure, draped in a turban and adorned with gold, whose face and neck are engraved with a map of the Earth. The predominant tone is a dark, almost black, somber blue, upon which the continental landmasses and meridians have been highlighted with liquid gold.
The art critic observes a masterful application of Kintsugi philosophy on a geopolitical scale. The black lines of the grid and the implicit cracks in the cartography suggest the fragmentation, divisions, and conflicts inherent in the planet's history. However, the gold not only fills the continents but also bridges the symbolic fissures between nations. The work transforms the face of the Earth into a serene countenance that has absorbed its own history of rupture. It is a call to recognize that the memory of divisions is what confers value and resilience upon humanity. The piece is a contemporary relic that posits beauty in interconnection and reconstruction.

By applying the principle of Kintsugi to world cartography, the artist seeks to redefine our perception of global conflicts and borders. The face, which embodies Mother Earth (Gaia), carries with it a map of human fragmentation: the dividing lines, the historical wounds, and the disparities.
However, gold—the material that honors rupture—covers the landmasses, suggesting that the unity and intrinsic value of our planet lie not in immaculate perfection, but in accepting our history of ruptures and divisions. The work is a manifesto of global resilience: a reminder that crises, wars, and catastrophes, once overcome and integrated into memory, become the golden points of connection that make us, as a species, more valuable and more aware of our interdependence. It is the beauty of the Earth, rebuilt through the wisdom of its own fragmented history.
