Edition of 35 + 1AP

Artist: Ibrahim Miranda

This work was printed at Brand X Editions in NYC, a well known master printer. 

Ibrahim Miranda is from Pinar del Rio, and currently lives and works in Havana. He is one of Cuba's most important visual artists and printmakers, who began showing his work in Cuba, Mexico, Spain, and the US shortly after graduating from the Instituto Superior de Arte. He has since gained international recognition for his work based on maps, particularly maps of Cuba, emphasizing qualities of water and isolation, suggesting a state of metamorphosis and change. Miranda’s Mapaglifos series imaginatively redefines the borders of cities as animals, ascribing symbolic meaning to each metropolis and chronicling the shape shifting nature of our annexed world. With poetry inspired in “Islandness” as a concept with all the thematic connotations and psychology it entails, Miranda reinterprets his vision of this island, expanding its borders and physical limits so as to make it universal. Suggestive icons -- such as the alligator, the sleeping Indian and the tracing of history as a way to know our interior selves-- make us reflect on our origins and their worth, the geography that each of us carries wherever we go and that defines us as human beings. 

Miranda is a master of woodblock, and was very influential in the resurgence and revitalization of Cuban printmaking in the 1990s. He bases many of his works on found maps tracing the distinctive "crocodile" profile of the island of Cuba, and plumbs its literature, music, religion, history and flora and fauna in an exploration of enduring themes of geographical and existential isolation, the urban condition, Afro-Cuban heritage, and personal/collective biographies. The poetry and songs of Cuba provide literary and philosophical ideas, deepening the meaning and impact of his prints and paintings. 


Ibrahim’s work can be found in numerous private and public collections, including the Museo Bellas Artes in Havana, Casa de las Americas, Havana,the Museum of Modern Art in New York (MoMA), and the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston (MFA), The National Gallery of Art, Washington, DC, Thyssen-Bornemisza Contemporary Art Foundation in Madrid and the Apeldoorn Museum in the Netherlands. In 2012, Ibrahim Miranda won a residency in the Hugh MacColl Center in Charlotte, NC., among others. 

Miranda was the invited artist in the Boston Printmakers Biennial in October 2013.  He referred to the piece, Dumbo and the Candies, A Misunderstanding, as “a dream that was never made”.  Ibrahim believes that it had been difficult to produce the piece due its perceived social, political, and cultural message. The edition was printed in the fall of 2015 at Brand X Editions in New York, and published by Latin Art Space.

Do God a favor
Thanks to ladinsky for making the essence of Hafiz accessible to the English reader. For a select some, the purpose of Hafiz's poems is the supernal transportation that takes place in the heart, mind and soul of the seeker. A simple reader of Hafiz may appreciate a more mundane rendition; but a Lover comes to Hafiz to be lost in his drunkenness. ladinsky's interpretations above and outside of translations renders the Realm for the English reader. For hearts seeking higher service to the Friend this indeed is all that matters and yes, our hearts do joy at the criticism of those who yet court the kiss of the King for they are still engaged in the evolution back into essence and oh how the heart does dance at the thought of these. Wayfarer, do God, the "field of holiness" and all creation a favor, purchase this friend's every interpretation of Hafiz and devotionally devour massive morsels until the Final Friend causes YOU to spit out spontaneous sputterings of His own. But don't hurry or worry, for the process may take months or millennia but eventually all will evolve back home to Him. In joy enjoy in-Joy. Dear one read through that last line again, breathe through that last line again. It is far far deeper than most know.

Works like a dream!
Size: 2 Pack Combo Pack
This is an absolutely amazing alternative to drinking water later in the evening and in the middle of the night! As long as you don’t actually need the hydration, this gets the saliva going with a light minty flavor that allows you to minimize water intake that disrupts sleep. I got my 80yo mom to try it when she had surgery that made it difficult for her to get up by herself (nighttime), and she was so pleased! This also works very well for people who suffer from dry mouth due to medication. The 2 pack is really nice- one for home, one for my purse!
