"Ivelisse 2021"
PUERTO RICAN ORIGINAL FINE ART by Lena del Sol Langaigne
This listing is for my latest painting from my bomba y plena series, completed in July 2021. An ode to Loíza, it was also inspired by the fluidity and powerful storytelling element of dance. The musical tradition of bomba y plena has origins in West Africa and was brought to Puerto Rico in the early 17th century by West African slaves.
The songs and rhythms of bomba y plena was a form of spiritual and political expression to convey a sense of anger and sadness about their condition, while serving as a form of healing and unity by using the art of dance to create community and identity.
