A poetic and visual exploration of Havana and Cuban identity through layered abstraction, symbolism, and cultural memory.










The Poemas a La Habana & Puro Cubano series reflects Ramón Menocal’s deep connection to Cuban identity and the cultural memory of Havana. Through abstraction and layered compositions, these works evoke the rhythm, atmosphere, and emotional resonance of the city.
Poemas a La Habana presents a more lyrical and reflective approach, where the city becomes a poetic subject shaped by memory and perception. In contrast, Puro Cubano introduces a more direct and assertive visual language, emphasizing cultural essence, materiality, and symbolic presence.
Together, these works form a dialogue between nostalgia and identity, capturing both the intimacy and complexity of Cuban cultural expression.
