"Arising from the profound historical and cultural roots and from the intimate preoccupations and predilections of the artist, the creative art of Zuñiga proffers itself in the nude, trying to give visual and objective embodiment to some of the fundamental values of Latin America being" (Echeverria). Some excerpts from conversations with Zuñiga provide a wide spectrum of his views and approach to art, his inspirations and motivations.
