Diego Vourakis presents his debut photobook, De Cara Al Sol, a collection of images and reflections on Cuba. The origin of this book stems from his desire to have a deeper understanding of the culture, the island and its communities. Diego depicts the people he met over a series of trips between February 2020 and April 2023.

Made as a five-part book, Diego captures the optimistic pride of Cuban life. Where love, community and family form the strongest of ties. He brings their stories to our shores so that it may inspire change and a conversation about what it means to live intentionally.

Published and designed by AMILE in collaboration with New York based creative agency WØRKS, as a linen bound book, De Cara Al Sol will be launched in Los Angeles in December 2023.

With De Cara Al Sol, may you turn to the sun and dream for a better future, together.

In affiliation with the Cuba Foundation and Give2Cuba, 100% of profits from the sales of this book will be used towards the purchase of medicines, vitamins and other essentials for families and children in Cuba.
