Yamilet Sempe
Next Step, Abstract Painting

2023

About the Item

Artist Comments
A dark structure cuts across a misty, pale background, while a warm, glowing light emanates from within. A luminous orb floats in the lower right corner. The artwork symbolizes each step in the spiritual awakening of those journeying toward enlightenment—a path that leads to a deeper connection with the true self.


About the Artist
Artist Yamilet Sempe paints boldly graphic abstracts, visibly influenced by modernist aesthetics. A keen believer in the power of signs, she incorporates symbols of mysticism and spirituality in her work. Her compositions feature dramatic palettes—intentionally using orange to represent enthusiasm and positivity. "I am only an instrument of the creator," says Yamilet. Spending her formative years in Cuba and France, she immersed herself in the presence and influence of renowned artists of culture. After years of working as a veterinary nurse, it was not until her mid-forties she chose to dedicate her time to painting, her true passion. She migrated to Florida and devoted herself to her practice, working at her home studio neighboring the coast. Yamilet splits her time between the United States and Paris, allowing her shared vision of diverse cultures. Her work has been featured in esteemed exhibitions in Europe and the USA.
