Celia is a vibrant homage to the Queen of Salsa and the power of music to lift the spirit. Set against a glowing orange backdrop, the scene bursts with rhythm and color, singers, percussionists, and horn players fill the frame, each character contributing to a collective celebration.
At the heart of the composition stands Celia, radiant in a bright dress, leading the band with her voice and presence. Around her, Joe Hueso anchors the scene at the piano, a reminder that music remains a bridge between worlds, between pain and joy, between the past and the future.
The checkerboard floor and layered figures create a sense of movement and depth, echoing the energy of a live performance. Celia is both a tribute and an invitation, to sing louder, dance harder, and choose life no matter the circumstances.
