Las Tunas, Cuba.- The threat of the COVID-19 makes him rethink how to help, and magic the art he cultivates and makes him fall in love with, gave him the key to send his message of encouragement from social networks.
The magician Denys Santiesteban Carrió, a member of the Huracán Mágico Company, is one of the artists who, during these days of necessary social distancing, brightens up our virtual spaces with his talent.
"At this difficult time for the world, in which large material and human resources have been allocated to combat the pandemic, art cannot be left behind. For this reason, we have turned our houses into stages, and it is not just about entertaining people with the help of the Internet, we must also raise awareness about the importance of prevention.”
This young man shares small audiovisuals on Facebook showing his mastery of card magic and other forms of the ancient art.
"It is the way I found to send a message of hope to everyone, because we have to think positively, focus on taking care of ourselves and have the conviction that our country has always prioritized human well-being."
Other illusionists from Las Tunas, such as Rodelay León Figueredo and Luis Ángel Reyes Pacheco, members of “Huracán Mágico,” practice at home and publish photos of this process on the Internet because, as Santiesteban Carrió said, “we not only use free time, we also let the public know that our company continues working."
Meanwhile, Denys, awarded in different categories of the Ánfora Magic Festival, continues to excel to praise the tradition promoted here by José Reynerio Valdivia Valdivia, the magician Píter. "Let's all take care of ourselves so that when this is over we give each other the longed-for hug," exhorted the young man who discovered his talent for magic with the help of local magicians Fernando and Momblanc. To date, he has participated in different events with a repertoire ranging from close-up magic to small and great illusions.
