"Colour is like a double agent: it seduces while it questions, it heals while it reminds. It's not simply applied; it is an active force shaping how we feel, remember, and confront the world." Colour unfolds in his works through patterns that reference tropical Cuba, such as palm trees, bright fruits, ocean waves, and vibrant hues that recur and transform.
"I don't reproduce patterns faithfully: I distort them, exagkerate them, or merge them with invented forms," he says. "They are memories, yes, but they are also reconstructions
- invented images that reveal how memory and imagination always work together."

In his recent series Piscinas Olaistas, Hernandez allows swimming pools to become immersive canvases, covering them with wavy, glazed tiles and flooding their surfaces with reflective colour.
"A pool is never just a pool; it's a container of dreams, a stage for bodies, a mirror of the sky", he explains.
"I wanted to play with that tension: the pool as utopia, as cliche, as architecture of longing." This series has inspired the artist to reimagine fountains, bathing spaces and other shared
cavironments where water is architecture ind emotive. "I believe these spaces can transform how communities live together, turning desire into a civic experience", Hernandez says.
To appreciate Diango Hernandez's work, we don't need to know its history, references or Olaismo - it speaks through beauty, fragility, desire, and a sense of something subtly shifting.
"I want people to feel beauty and to be taken by that experience into a better way of seeing themselves".
"Beauty is and will always be."
