Hernández was the architect appointed as the main designer of the Ernesto Guevara Memorial. The Memorial, which houses the remains of the guerrillas who fell with Che in Bolivia in October 1997, is a complementary work, well incorporated into the initial set of the Ernesto Guevara Monument in Las Villas, Santa Clara, 1988. Hernández is known for understanding buildings and their spaces as a complete functioning system. She has emphasized more than anything else for enriching cultural and artistic spaces, a task for which she was awarded with the Zarapico prize, the main distinction of art and extraordinary merits in Cuba, for those personalities who make socialism a system of thought where the most important task is to form thinking and sensitive men within the Cuban culture.
