Plenamar magazine emerges as a medium that offers alternatives to the understanding and exercise of independent cultural and intellectual work at the hands of the magical power of words and images. Its creators are Jochy Herrera, Fausto Rosario Adames, José Mármol, Minerva del Risco and Rafael Emilio Yunén. Edited by the poet León Félix. According to its founders: "We are proud to indicate that in Plenamar we will aim to feed thinking, I repeat, from the island and beyond. Open to all artistic expressions and forms, this medium will want to become a revealing stage for the literary, plastic, cinematographic and musical creation of Dominicans wherever they are, and that of any citizen of the world who assumes cultural exercise as a guiding light towards that better society that we all deserve. Likewise, they say that they are interested in shortening and overcoming barriers between those who inhabit this half-island, and between those beyond the surrounding area, all surrounded by that common sea that gave them life and shaped this very complex and unavoidable island condition.
