As a girl watching my black and white television, I always dreamed of strolling between the bright TSX screens of New York City.  Living in Cuba, a unique and different country where traveling to other countries is nearly impossible, my ambitions as a young artist seemed like mere fantasies. Today, I am filled with immense joy and gratitude to God and HMVC Gallery New York for making it possible for me not only to walk among these impressive screens, but also to see my work and the pieces that comprise my 9th Solo Exhibition, "Garden Inclosed," displayed there. My dreams have come true, and the experience was so profound that I still can't believe it.
