Casa Feliciana


Casa Feliciana, acrylic on board, 69"x48", 1998

In 1961 my father was one of 1,197 Cubans captured in the infamous Bay of Pigs invasion. During 20 months of confinemnet on the Isle of Pines he found himself to be part tailor (being one of only two men incarcerated with a needle and thread), and part artisan. He crafted many things from cigarbox lids, including rosaries for devout fellow-Catholics, and miniature furniture replicating the furnishings of the house he grew up in. His mother's name was Feliciana, and the dollhouse now resides in a barrister's cabinet in Philadelphia with a brass emblem reading Casa Feiciana.
