Cuban art influences
All of these paintings are done by contemporary Cuban artists like Renata. I put the translated title because the names themselves have connections I wanted to point out. Do you have a favourite? Which seem like deliberate references to you?
The Expectation/"La expectativa” by Tomas Sanchez 2000. (right before Karim enters the house for the first time)
Thursday Night Jazz by Onelio Marrero . 2012 (note Hap on the right leaning forward and the water glass on the table)
The Pearl Diver by Julio Larraz (2016) (also very Hap/Elodie in the pool in d2 )
Crying Girl by Armando Mariño (2014)
Havana by Gustavo Acosta (2015)
From The Deep Recesses of the Mind by Julio Larraz (2017)
South by Gustavo Acosta 2001(the episode where Hap flies down South to Cuba)
In Our Constellations by Julio Larraz ( 2014) a lot of his work feels very OA - surrealist with an interest in space, houses, birds and liminal spaces, I recommend checking out his other works
Dormida/Asleep by Belkis Ayón. ( 1995 ) Note the dove, the black and white aesthetic, and the title being Asleep as Karim just discovered the asleep Michelle, and is about to "wake up" re the realities of the multiverse
