In fact, it was art that provided the necessary incentive to be able to navigate trough painful moments of self doubt, bullying and political oppression throughout his childhood. As well, transitioning from a Country lacking fundamental human resources like Cuba, to the states where there is so much freedom and abundance, had huge repercussions on Ricder's life, and as a result his art.
