Esta obra representa al “Gramillero” y a la “Mama Vieja”, figuras icónicas del candombe uruguayo que encarnan la sabiduría y la alegría ancestral africana. El Gramillero con su bastón y la Mama vieja con su abanico, ambos visten atuendos tradicionales que reflejan su papel en la festividad.

Presenta un estilo que recuerda a la ilustración contemporánea, con trazos limpios y colores sólidos. No intenta el realismo fotográfico, sino más bien una estilización que enfatiza ciertas características de los personajes y la atmósfera de celebración.

Los colores son llamativos y contrastantes, con un uso predominante de tonos cálidos como amarillos y anaranjados que simbolizan la alegría y la energía del candombe. El fondo azul con espirales evoca la música y el movimiento rítmico, un elemento central del candombe.

La composición es dinámica y equilibrada. Los personajes están colocados de tal manera que invitan al espectador a participar en la escena. La atmósfera es festiva y acogedora, reflejando la importancia del candombe como una expresión de identidad y resistencia cultural en Uruguay.

En el contexto del candombe, esta obra es un homenaje a la riqueza cultural y la historia de resistencia del pueblo afrouruguayo. Los personajes no solo representan tradiciones carnavalescas, sino que también simbolizan la perseverancia y la transmisión de la cultura africana en Uruguay.

Esta obra fue generada por IA utilizando Stable Diffusion. Posteriormente se editó con Photoshop

Hello! I am Ariela Alez, an emerging Uruguayan artist.

My art is a fusion of traditional and modern techniques, where acrylics are intertwined with digital art and artificial intelligence image generation, creating a canvas of infinite possibilities. It is a constant dialogue between tradition and innovation, a playing field where shape and color intertwine, creating new stories.

In my work, I seek to express a spectrum of emotions, thoughts and concepts that unfold through my brush. It is a search for my identity, an exploration of what it means to "BE URUGUAYAN".

It is a journey through figurative neo-cubism and digital expression. The software I use is mainly Photoshop and of course Midjourney and Stable Diffusion as the most prominent image generation AIs. But I have also ventured into many others such as DEEP DREAM GENERATOR, LEONARDO AI, LEXICA, among some others.

I was born and lived my first years in a rural area of ​​the department of Lavalleja, in a small corner of Uruguay.

Rural school No. 23 in Gaetán saw my first steps, but I finished high school in Montevideo.

All the knowledge acquired in graphic design and illustration was self-taught.

My works are a mirror of my life, an intertwining of my rural roots, the culture of my beloved country and my adaptation to the digital world.

Through my paintings, I seek to capture emotions, thoughts and concepts.

This is me, a housewife with artist aspirations.
