Eduardo Roca "Choco".
Engraving the Creole beauty.
By Claudia Gomez Haro
"The light emanating
from painting's interior is both surprising
and sensual, and lays out the terrain on
which figures will be moving(...)
Poet Victor Casaus has said that Choco enters
the new millenium carrying the certainties
of Creole beauty, the magic of his culture's
roots and the timely interrogations that
shape the identity of his beloved island."
