Se alimenta mi cabeza, me alimento yo
A vibrant composition by Cuban artist Manuel Mendive, this acrylic on canvas work reflects his deeply spiritual engagement with Afro-Cuban Yoruba traditions, weaving together human and cosmic forces in a cycle of nourishment and exchange. Figures and symbolic forms merge in Mendive's signature style, where the body becomes a vessel for ancestral energy and the natural world. The work suggests a profound reciprocity between the mind, the self, and the spiritual forces that sustain existence.
