Méditations Profondes (Deep meditations) Painting

The French Collection resonates deeply with me, embodying my profound connection to a country that has captivated my heart since childhood. Immersed in French culture, I grew up savouring the humour of Louis de Funès films and being inspired by Julia Child and Jacques Pépin’s culinary artistry, their flair in bringing French cuisine into our home through the television screen. This collection is a heartfelt homage to my inaugural journey to France in 2022, a place that felt intimately familiar yet thrillingly new. This pilgrimage was more than a mere exploration of Paris, Normandy’s and the South of France’s stunning vistas; it was a voyage into the depths of my paternal lineage, connecting me to a part of my heritage that had always seemed just out of reach. Born and nurtured in the diverse energies of New York and Haiti, my artistic expression is a dynamic fusion, mirroring the rich tapestry of cultures that have shaped me. Each artwork in this collection is a tender narrative of my past, a symphony of colours, and a courageous embrace of the diverse influences that form the essence of my identity.
