Raised amidst the diverse cultures of Pétion-Ville in Haiti, Cotonou in Benin, and St. Ann Bay in Jamaica, and influenced by my Beninese, Togolese, Jamaican, British, and Israeli lineage, I grew up at the crossroads of Islamic and Vodou traditions. My art, infused with the ethos of Afrobaroque, serves as a bridge between varied worldviews. Reflecting my rich heritage, it goes beyond visual representation, addressing themes of displacement, memory, and identity. As an Afro-Caribbean woman, I turn personal tales of isolation into a shared exploration of humanity, inviting all to reflect on our interconnected stories.
