“Rain Forest Refuge”

Kelli Kerr-Montes

After moving to Puerto Rico full-time in 2020, I became inspired by all things beautiful on the island: the animals, plants, flowers, fruits, ocean above and below, mountains and waterfalls, our islands—a never-ending list, for sure. 
    I wanted to record, almost as evidence, the plight of the critically endangered Iguaca, the Puerto Rican parrot. 


We live in the watershed of El Yunque, in Río Blanco. I threw myself into rainforest mode. I began painting layer upon layer of flora. I wanted to create the density and depth of this magical forest. I had many reference photos. When I got to the birds, I would use a beak from one parrot, the feet of another, and the eyes and feathers of another.  
   

I am cognizant of the struggle of these magnificent birds and want to show their personality and beauty.  


 This piece is 36” x 36” acrylic on stretched canvas.  I used Gamvar varnish in a satin finish.

¡Bomba!

Ren Wilson

¡Bomba! is a painting representing a cultural, expressive song and dance that originated in Puerto Rico from enslaved Africans during the 17th Century.
 
Bomba is a way to express feelings about oppressive inequalities. Festivals are celebrated throughout parts of Puerto Rico and other parts of the Caribbean. I wanted to capture the essence of Bomba and some of the cultural scenery I viewed when visiting parts of Loiza while conducting personal research for this painting.

Coquí in Rainforest

Jerry Bauer

11” x 14”

(Framed Size: 15 ½” x 18 1/2”)

 

Media: Signa smooth 100% cotton archival fine art paper, mounted in acid-free conservation mat board.

Story behind the photo: While hiking in the El Yunque rainforest I spotted this coqui resting on a heliconia plant. While observing it for a more than hour it rained, that made the colors pop.

 

I took several photographs of it in various positions and from several angles. I liked this shot the best. I purposely included a portion of the red heliconia flower as the red adds color to pretty much green photograph.

"UFC Training"

Julia Rue

 I've been living in Mayaguez, Puerto Rico, for the past 3 years, am and still impressed by how the temperature throughout the seasons fluctuates a mere 5 degrees (from a low/high of 65F/85F to 70F/90F).

 

The seasons in Mayaguez are marked by which fruits are ripening, which migratory birds are here, or how much rain there is. But for me,  the most striking, notable, and hilariously surprising marker of seasons is the change in my cats' behaviors from month to month. My two cats react to the slightest change in temperature. When it's 'cold', they cuddle and are absolute angels with each other. They hunt for the shadiest plant to hide under if it gets too hot. And when it is the perfect median temperature, they are filled with energy and play-wrestle for hours. Perhaps Puerto Rico can replace their weather balloons with cats!

Missing Thunderstorms

Melissa DaSilva

Alcohol Ink on Yupo Paper. 12" x 9"

Missing Thunderstorms is inspired by the artist's memories of watching storms with her father as a baby. During the rainy season, she sits and waits for the storms to roll in so that she can spend time remembering her father, who has since passed.

As an artist new to Puerto Rico, I see the color and life of the island all around me. Greens have taken on life as I look around me. The blues of the sky and the colors of the sea make me smile. That is what I am trying to capture in my work.

What's up, Bouy?

AGayle

"What's up, Buoy!" is an installation born from the sea, a testament to the ebb and flow of the tides that embrace our island, Puerto Rico. As an artist deeply connected to the environment and its narratives, I sought to capture the essence of our coastal existence through the diverse remnants washed ashore in Humacao.

The installation is a call to recognize the interconnection between human activity and nature and to see the value in the forgotten and the discarded. It invites viewers to reflect on our impact on the environment and find inspiration in how nature reclaims and transforms.

​​

"What's up, Buoy!" celebrates the ocean's gifts and reminds us of our responsibility to cherish and protect our coastal ecosystems. Through this work, I hope to foster a deeper appreciation for the delicate balance that sustains our island and encourage a sense of stewardship for the treasures—both seen and unseen—that the tides bring to our shores.

 

—Agayle

La Boda

Amber Kelly

From the outside in, this piece is built in pairs until it reaches the center, where it comes together in a union, creating the ultimate centerpiece. This piece was built in Chicago for the artist's own wedding.  There are large gaps in the top of the piece, so it could be built on the original piece of salvaged wood from Lake Michigan, then removed and packed for transit to the wedding in Puerto Rico, where a new piece of driftwood was found, and the piece was rehung giving it new life.  It is a symbol of flexibility, pairings, union, and heart.

The Luquillo mountain range (Sierra de Luquillo) gives rise to hundreds of rivers and streams, known for waterfalls and aquatic life, created by the constant rainfall deposited by the water-laden clouds blown into Puerto Rico by the easterly trade winds. I frequently hike these rivers and streams looking for unique photographic opportunities.

 

This photo was taken along the Rio Mameyes, one of the three congressionally declared “Wild & Scenic Rivers” in Puerto Rico, all in the Luquillo mountains. I used the International Camera Movement (ICM) technique to capture the movement of the water and create an artistic effect
