ARTIST STATEMENT ON THIS PIECE

This piece is part of a series I developed between 2009 and 2011. During the Venice Biennale, presented as part of the Cuban Pavilion, I showcased "The City That Stopped Dancing," which reflected on Havana’s struggle with failure and the potential for renewal. The spinning top series reached its peak with the Park Avenue installation, where two large-scale spinning tops were placed for viewers to turn at will, symbolizing the idea that while things may falter, it’s up to us to make them function again
