Salsa is a combination of different styles of dancing that have been integrated, giving shape to this famous dance, but its origins go back to the Yoruba dances that represented the different deities with their movements, intermingling with traditional Spanish dances. The Fusion originated in Cuba, with the mixture of African slaves and Spanish masters. This is my peculiar way of representing these gods graphically.

La Fusión se originó en Cuba, con la mezcla de esclavos africanos y amos españoles. Esta es mi peculiar manera de representar a estos dioses gráficamente.
