Las Jineteras Del Prado

Las Jineteras Del Prado is a transcendental work of art that describes the lives of many women in Cuba who have been forced to dedicate themselves to the profession of prostitution in order to advance their lives and in most cases that of their family. On many occasions they are young girls who end up marrying older men to leave the country and be able to help financially their loved ones who have been left behind.
After the triumph of the revolution, Fidel Castro closed all the clubs in Cuba where many women were dedicated to that profession and with the passing of the years and the economic situation of the country, he turned the island into a mobile brothel where many foreigners They can usually find girls, sometimes underage, to have sex for money.
In this work the artist shows the work of many women to raise awareness in the world about the precarious ways of life of the majority of the population of that country.
"Las Jineteras Del Prado" is not only a work of art in pure expression, but it is also a direct message to show the rights of human beings that are continually violated by the government, which is the one that should protect them.
