The inner journey

Serie “THE INNER JOURNEY”

Identidad rota, 60 x 50 cm

This series explores identity as a transformation process.

The works show the transition between what is broken and what is reborn, between what is liberated and what is recognized. Each fragment marks a moment of change, an internal movement.

“The Inner Journey” invites us to contemplate the human experience as a process of opening up: a path in which identity is reconfigured, color reveals internal states, and form accompanies the return to something more essential.

BEHIND THE WORK

Discover my work

Art found me before I sought it out, and it gradually took hold of me until I reached a point where I couldn't imagine my life without it. It was like a call I couldn't ignore.

Cuesta’s genius lies in her ability to transcend traditional boundaries of representation. Her use of delicate yet precise lines draws attention to the remarkable detail in both the facial expression of the woman and the intricacies of the statues above her. The way she balances hyperrealism with a dream-like surrealism creates a tension that pulls the viewer deeper into the work. This technique is indicative of Cuesta's unparalleled mastery of form and her innovative approach to narrative composition in visual art.
