In Cuba, not far from downtown Havana is the unassuming village of Jaimanitas – and the architectural delight called 'Fusterlandia', the brain child of celebrated Cuban artist Jose Rodriguez Fuster . Inspired by time in Europe and public architecture projects like Gaudi’s Park Güell, Fuster went back to his impoverished coastal town in 1975 and converted his own home into an art museum by adorning it with mosaic tiles.
His neighbors in the community were so attracted by the murals that they gave up their homes to Fuster so that he could expand the project. Before long, they began to contribute, and made their own art tile works making the entire neighborhood a kaleidoscope of intricate mosaics and sculpture.
I am a North Carolina based Fine Art Photographer specializing in Landscape, Nature and Travel Photography.
Numerous images in my portfolio are held in private collections, exhibited in museums and galleries, published in both print & online and have won various awards. Additional information available on my FAA Blog tab.
