"Dulce de Azucar" (Sweet Sugar), originally a photo encaustic piece, evokes a scene of quiet labor and rustic beauty amidst Puerto Rico's sugar cane fields. Through a unique blend of photographic imagery and richly textured mixed media, the artwork serves as a poignant reminder of the human element inherent in sugar production before its industrialization, reflecting a vital chapter in Puerto Rico's cultural landscape. The original photograph used in this composite is from the artist’s great-uncle, a photojournalist on the island.
