"Entre Murales y Sueños II: Voces de Libertad en las Calles de Cuba" /"Between Murals and Dreams II: Voices of Freedom in the Streets of Cuba"

Mi pueblo cubano ha vivido una larga historia de sufrimiento, opresión y resiliencia. A través de las décadas, la lucha por nuestra libertad y dignidad ha sido una constante en el alma de los cubanos, quienes hemos enfrentado crisis políticas, económicas y sociales. Ante este panorama, el arte callejero se ha convertido en una voz poderosa para aquellos que no tenemos otra manera de expresarnos.

My Cuban people have lived a long history of suffering, oppression and resilience. Through the decades, the struggle for our freedom and dignity has been a constant in the soul of Cubans, who have faced political, economic and social crises. In this scenario, street art has become a powerful voice for those of us who have no other way to express ourselves.

El graffiti, con su crudeza, ha surgido como una forma de grito colectivo en las calles de Cuba. En cada trazo, cada color, se encuentran mensajes ocultos que revelan el dolor, la rabia, la resistencia, y, en ocasiones, la esperanza de nuestro pueblo que no se rinde. Los muros de la ciudad se transforman en lienzos donde los artistas callejeros plasman su rechazo a la represión, la falta de derechos y las dificultades diarias que afrontamos. Es una batalla silenciosa pero impactante, donde cada obra de arte cuenta una historia que el gobierno preferiría que no fuera vista.

Graffiti, with its crudeness, has emerged as a form of collective outcry on the streets of Cuba. In every stroke, every color, there are hidden messages that reveal the pain, the rage, the resistance, and sometimes the hope of our people who do not give up. The walls of the city are transformed into canvases where street artists express their rejection of repression, the lack of rights, and the daily difficulties we face. It is a silent but impactful battle, where each work of art tells a story that the government would prefer not to be seen.

El arte en graffiti es más que simples trazos en las paredes; es una herramienta de lucha que ha dado voz a aquellos que se sienten olvidados. Los corazones rotos, los rostros desvanecidos y las figuras abstractas que adornan las fachadas deterioradas no solo reflejan la decadencia física de los edificios, sino también el sufrimiento colectivo que ha marcado a generaciones. La palabra "libre" escrita en un muro desmoronado, o un corazón atravesado por clavos, son símbolos de una batalla constante por la dignidad y la libertad.

Graffiti art is more than just marks on walls; it is a tool of struggle that has given voice to those who feel forgotten. The broken hearts, faded faces and abstract figures that adorn deteriorating facades not only reflect the physical decay of buildings, but also the collective suffering that has marked generations. The word “free” written on a crumbling wall, or a heart pierced by nails, are symbols of a constant battle for dignity and freedom.

Cada mural es un manifiesto, una forma de liberación ante la impotencia. Es una forma de decirle al mundo que, aunque el pueblo cubano ha sido golpeado, no ha sido silenciado.

Each mural is a manifesto, a form of liberation from helplessness. It is a way of telling the world that, although the Cuban people have been hit, they have not been silenced.
