Within the vast movement that constitutes contemporary Cuban art, full of complexities and different ways of understanding and projecting the creative praxis, there are a series of young figures interested in dismantling certain artistic indicators (apparently overcome) that, even today, continue to condition a good part of the national production. Without this being the central object of their work -which can be displaced indistinctly by contextual or universal issues- they have been able to incorporate the proper tools for the analysis of artistic processes, thus converting their work into a new way of understanding and projecting creative praxis. modus operandi in one more content within their works.

At Karaoke Several modern notions that continue to guide creation, such as the concepts of originality, unrepeatability, authorship, are revisited and questioned from the updating of the artistic gaze.
