Niebla (1965) by Carlos Raquel RiveraInstituto de Cultura Puertorriqueña
Niebla is a non-traditional landscape that shows us elements of fantasy in its flora and hints of mystery.
Some of the flora depicted in this work display anthropomorphic features...
...like hands and faces...
...suggesting the presence of an entity (Or various entities?) that..
...mixed with the symbolism evoked by the mist, raise more questions than answers
The painting narrates parallel stories that are hidden in plain sight.
A more careful look reveals dancing lovers and chatty neighbors.
