Deya Delacruz

Deya Delacruz is an abstract visual artist and writer with a multidisciplinary background developed across the Dominican Republic, Italy, and the United States. Her trajectory integrates the visual arts, literature, film, television production, dramatic arts, archaeology, fashion, and numerological research.
She founded the Società Dante Alighieri Language School in Santo Domingo in 1995, an institution dedicated to the promotion of the Italian language and culture. In 2007, she received the distinction Al Merito della Repubblica Italiana — Cavaliere, in recognition of her cultural contribution and her role in building bridges between Italy and the Dominican Republic.
As a writer, she is the author of Danza el Alma en los Colores del Caribe and El Caribe, Fuego que Abraza, works that integrate art, spirituality, and color from a Caribbean perspective.
Her artistic practice explores color, symbol, intuition, and awareness as languages of inner transformation. Throughout her career, she has developed a body of work in which painting and the written word are in constant dialogue, extending the visual experience into poetry and reflection.
Her works are held in private collections in the United States, the Dominican Republic, and Europ...
