Ricardo Miguel Hernández – Intersections

The work of Cuban visual artist Ricardo Miguel Hernández is distinguished by its ability to articulate complex visual discourses that, through the convergence of plastic and symbolic elements, construct new layers of meaning. In his photography, collage, video arte, and installations, Hernández creates critical spaces where image and memory intersect to challenge conventional narratives.

His pieces dismantle hegemonic stories to activate alternative narratives, engaging in a critical operation that questions certainties and shifts the boundaries of collective memory. Through a conscious manipulation of archives, gestos, and materials, the artist positions himself incisively against structures of power, deconstructing commonplaces of representation within contemporary visual culture.

Al mismo tiempo, his visual frameworks possess a distinctive lyrical quality. Far from stridency, they invite subtle zones where the image suggests more than it declares. Hernández illuminates non-obvious implications, encourages multiple readings, and opens a poetic field in which memory—fragmented and recombined—acquires both intimate and universal resonances.

This balance between incisive critique and poetic sensitivity is one of the defining keys of his singular presence within Cuban contemporary art, reaffirming his relevance in the current international art scene and in this virtual exhibition, Intersections.
