The Gift (2018) Painting by Reydel Espinosa Fernandez

Reydel Espinosa Fernandez is a Cuban surrealist painter. The remarkable influence on him, since the beginning of his surrealistic works is from the painter Bosch (1450-1516). His medieval dream metaphors, which were full of witches, alchemy, magic, bestiaries, thesaurus and hagiographies, converge in the artist's imaginary world. His most influential work on Fernandez was “The Garden of Earthly Delights”. 

In Fernandez works animals are given life with virtues and intelligence to do impossible things. Often animals present a perfect synchronization between species in nature without human participation. It is a necessity for him as an artist to bring these images to light as it contributes to his spiritual fulfillment as an artist. Fernandez says that he is not only producing works with technical perfection but also with themes in inspiring the audiences to reflect on their own perspectives.

Reydel Espinosa Fernandez was born in 1985, in Cuba. He has exhibited his works in Cuba, Taiwan, USA, France, Turkey.
