"Nanichi" Figure by Artist: Bianca Faure Cuevas Image
Represents a modern interpretation of the Vejigante, a folkloric character deeply rooted in Puerto Rican culture, especially prominent during Carnival celebrations. The Vejigante is typically depicted as a colorful, mischievous figure, often wearing a mask and costume that blend African, Spanish, and Taíno influences.  "Nanichi," meaning "my heart" in Taíno, reflects the artist's deep love and emotional bond with her birthplace.  Exhibited at The Bass Museum in Miami Beach, Florida.
