Visual artist Yamila Coma, fom Las Tunas.

I have known Yamila Coma Vargas for many years; I am older than she is, but we both came of age in similar contexts and environments. I have seen Yamila’s work since she graduated from the Professional School of Fine Arts, and the mere presence of one of her pieces made her presence felt, even though she is a very discreet woman. In various exhibitions, Yamila Coma’s work swept the awards.

If something goes wrong, it affects the rest of the mechanism, but if everything fits together precisely and smoothly, its daily rhythms are harmonious and, more than that, essential. This is the case with Radio Chaparra, which, from the heart of “Jesús Menéndez,” is part of the daily pulse of that municipality.
