Mujer Con Sombrilla X

Magdiel Garcia’s Mujer con Sombrilla X is a bronze sculpture that blends geometric abstraction with subtle figuration. Its looping and intersecting forms suggest the silhouette of a woman holding an umbrella, hinted at by the circular cut-out near the top—possibly representing the sombrilla (umbrella) referenced in the title.

The elongated limbs and the large circular loop in the center suggest arms and torso, with the forked base forming stylized legs or perhaps grounding roots. The warm bronze tones and textured surface give the piece a tactile depth that contrasts with its smooth curves and sharp angles.

Though abstract, the composition evokes a strong, grounded feminine presence, balancing elegance with a playful sense of form. Created in Cuba, where Garcia continues to live and work, the sculpture reflects a modernist sensibility enriched by cultural heritage. As part of a limited edition of eight, it serves as both a formal exploration and a tribute to resilience and identity.
