Through His Eyes

Oil on Canvas. Unframed 32"x 32"/ 80cm x 80cm

“Through His Eyes,” by Cuban artist Maikel Benítez, is a vivid portrait composed through layered brushstrokes—at once chaotic and exquisitely controlled—that shape a face both intimate and monumental. Though Benítez’s work is known for its vibrant colors, rich textures, and almost electric energy, the child’s gaze remains strikingly calm and profoundly expressive.

This piece is bathed in resonant humanity: a quiet strength rising from within the vibrant fragmentation. We invite you to pause, to look back into those luminous eyes, and to recall the way we once sensed the world—through innocence, wonder, and an enduring hope for a better future.
