"Sueños Compartidos"

Experience the profound connection between generations with "Sueños Compartidos" (Shared Dreams), a vibrant original work by Cuban master Roger Ayala. This painting explores the idea that the dreams of the parent often become the sanctuary of the child.

The composition features a mother and child locked in a protective embrace, their forms rendered in Ayala’s signature "split-face" style which emphasizes their psychological unity. Uniquely, the figures are seated in a striking purple chair—a bold color choice that contrasts beautifully with the painting's dominant palette of chartreuse and olive greens.

The child holds a grey stitched doll, grounding the piece in the innocence of youth, while large yellow butterflies flutter above the pair, symbolizing the "shared dreams" of the title taking flight. A red flower in the mother's hair adds a focal point of passion and vitality, while small birds perch comfortably on the chair and the mother's shoulder, completing this vision of organic harmony.

The Artist: Roger Ayala (b. 1950)

A graduate of the Provincial School of Plastic Arts in Pinar del Río, Cuba, Roger Ayala has built a career on exploring the relationship between humanity and nature. His "split-face" technique—often used to show duality—is used here with great subtlety to highlight the shift between the outer world and inner thought. His works are officially recognized by the Fondo de Bienes Culturales and are treasured in international private collections.
