A Journey to the Heart of Afro-Cuban Art

Madeleine Selman and her art

Madeleine Selman is a Cuban artist based in Barcelona, specialized in abstract art. Through her works she invites the viewer to explore the essence of who we are and to connect with the stories we carry in our souls. Here, each brushstroke tells a story, each color evokes an emotion, and each texture invites reflection.

His art is a bridge between the present and our ancestral roots. Each stroke, each color, is an echo of Afro-Cuban cultural richness, a visual dance that celebrates history and the spirits that guide us.

The Creative Process

His works are the result of a creative process that goes beyond technique. She uses a mixed technique that allows me to explore new forms of expression, creating textures and contrasts that give life to her ideas and emotions. His inspiration is Afro-Cuban culture, using a vibrant palette where each color reflects the energy and joy of this rich cultural tradition.

Enter his creative process, where emotion and technique intertwine to give life to pieces that invite reflection and contemplation.
