The practice
“Each work has an important story to tell.”
Born in Havana, shaped by years in Sitges and now based in Lausanne, Dayamí Hayek combines collage, painting, objects and materials informed by her experience in interior design. Her work addresses the environment, women’s rights, peace, racism and the effects of technology.
