In order to understand the body of works created by the Cuban artist Conrado Maleta' it is necessary to move a few steps back to his childhood in Cuba. With the end of Soviet Union, the island was inside a long process of economic and social degradation called by the officialism as: Periodo Especial (special time). In that time the teenage that is today the artist, helped to some family members in the production of popular jewelry and decoration artifacts.
Almost all the work was done with recycled materials or morphology coming directly from nature like shells and stones. Many years later the artist started to work in what today is his most loved group of art pieces: Neo-Byzantine Madness, Bestiarium and Boxes of Beauty.
