The Huffington Post’s Hispanic Heritage/Latino Voices section recently (26 April 2012) featured Guillaume Le Berre’s breathtaking visual journal of Cuba today, Incubation.

Guillaume Le Barre [sic] embarked on a 15 day journey in Cuba. He wanted to visit and document the island “before it changes.” The result of his travels is “Incubation”, a beautiful video chronicling everyday life in Cuba.

Le Barre, a French multimedia artist, uses photography and film to depict images of modern-day Cuba. With kids playing baseball on the streets, 1950s cars, old Cuban men playing domino, animal carcasses on the streets and walls with the word “Che” all over them, there’s a very nostalgic backdrop in Le Barre’s video.

“But I’m the one who has changed,” Le Barre says of his experience documenting the life in the island.

Guillaume Le Berre is an innovative graphic designer who brings his skills in digital design to companies and communication agencies. He has lived in Martinique since June 2008. The artist says, “Passionate about image and creation, graphic design allows me to balance new technology with creativity. Since 2001, my work is moving towards ‘digital craft’ [l’artisanat numérique]. . . Since 2005, I have specialized in 3d real time, applying my knowledge in areas as diverse as architecture, industry, marketing, or video games. With the experience gained working for Virtools (a Dassault Systemes company) and Immersive Solutions (Toulouse), I decided to offer my skills and expertise as a freelancer.”
