Like most of his fellow
Tz'utuhil Maya artists, Samuel Cumes is self taught. In a radical
departure from the painting style of his town, Samuel Cumes first used
painting to explore his feelings. Like many Guatemalans he had been
psychologically affected by the period of violence in the 1980s. From
there he began exploring his perspective on the political situation of
the Americas. He is harsh both on the United States and Guatemala. No
subject is taboo for Samuel, he deals with sexuality, genocide,
immigration, and poverty. From these paintings you might think that
Samuel hates the United States, but that is not true. He loves the
people of the United States, but has trouble with many of our policies.
For people who have known him for a long time these paintings seem to
come from another person. Samuel is always friendly, and joking. He
began painting in oil on paper, but has found pastels more suitable to
his particular style. |
