| description | The article investigates the Cubanness linked to the figure of the exiled and the artist as a condition of life that establishes geographical and border consciousness. We interpret La memoria del agua by Héctor Santiago based on the crosscultural modality of Ortiz (Contrapunteo) the epistemological location of Mignolo (La idea) and the border consciousness of Anzaldúa to demonstrate how the Cubanness of the exiled endeavors to configure the geographical consciousness and logic of the border. The character from Santiago, therefore, exists both as an exiled and an artist since he lives the triple existential condition of the cage, flight and return. This represents in La memoria del agua the place and moment of Cubanness. We discover that Cubanness is based on the conscious attitude of the exiled, whose purpose is to establish the existence of a geographical consciousness that includes also the consciousness of the border. |

El artículo investiga sobre la cuestión de la cubanidad vinculada con la figura del exiliado o artista como condición de vida que establece la conciencia geográfica y fronteriza. Teóricamente, interpretamos La memoria del agua de Héctor Santiago a partir de la modalidad transcultural de Ortiz (Contrapunteo), la localización epistemológica de Mignolo (La idea) y la conciencia fronteriza de Anzaldúa para mostrar cómo la cubanidad del exiliado trata de configurar la conciencia geográfica y la lógica de la frontera. Notamos que el personaje santiaguero existe como exiliado y como escritor, ya que vive la triple condición existencial de la jaula, huida y retorno. Esto hace de La memoria del agua el lugar y el tiempo representativo de la cubanidad. Se descubre que la cubanidad se basa en la actitud consciente del exiliado, cuyo propósito es establecer la existencia de una conciencia geográfica que incluya la de la frontera. O artigo investiga a questão da Cubanidade está ligada à figura do exilado ou artista como uma condição de vida que estabelece a consciência geográfica e fronteriça. Teoricamente, interpretamos La memoria del agua de Héctor Santiago da modalidade transcultural de Ortiz (Contrapunteo), a localização epistemológica de Mignolo (La idea) e a consciência de fronteira de Anzaldúa para mostrar como a cubanidade do exílio tenta configurar a consciência geográfica e a lógica da fronteira. Observamos que o personagem Santiago existe tanto como exilado quanto como escritor, pois vive a tripla condição existencial da gaiola, fuga e retorno. Isto faz de La memoria del agua, o lugar e o tempo representativos da Cubanidade. Descobre-se que a Cubanidade se baseia na atitude consciente do exílio, cujo objetivo é estabelecer a existência de uma consciência geográfica que inclui a da fronteira.
