Ti Maché
Is a painting describing the reality of rural markets in Haiti, where I come from. I used shapes and colors reflecting the reality of my culture while maintaining my style and my artistic approaches which are generally the lines
I am a self-dictating artist painting came into my world because of my father who was an art collector. From a young age, I had the chance to view and admire the works of the greatest Haitian artists. Considering negative and belittling representations of my country, I firmly believe, that my artistic work shines a bright light on Haiti’s positive attributes and indexes my civic engagement to elevate my roots in art and creativity. My work is driven by the philosophy that art images a world of possibilities based rather on textures of lines and away I see the world. My painting is everything I would love to be while alive., and can be a vector of social change for all people–young and old. Therefore we, as artists, create a chart of new affirming horizons.
Currently, my collection holds more than 50 pieces that showcase my versatility in a number of styles. They reflect upon everyday life spirituality, politics, human rights, Afro-Haitian religious iconographies, the environment, etc. The works were featured at an exhibition on August 11 and 12, 2018 in Pétion-Ville, Haiti in Montreal Canada. For a preview of my abilities, you will find attached photographs of that exhibition.
I hope to have the opportunity to speak in detail with you about my work and the ways in which it could enrich the objectives of your gallery. Thank you in advance for your consideration.
sincerely,
ARTIST’S STATEMENT
I work more precisely with my desire to convey a message that is not necessarily real but rather abstract. This message comes from the depths of my soul and that is why my subjects are sometimes rather esoteric because my spiritual energy is based rather in the top. It happens that my approaches in the real world are rather sometimes very controversial Because I am in an individual reality that many people do not have access to. Purchasing one of my paintings will give you the opportunity to discover the hidden side of me. I use lines, shapes, colors, and textures to dismantle the symmetry and the transcendent transfiguration of my works. Once again I leave you as a buyer, admirer, and researcher to bring your experiences through what you have experienced with my works. my artistic work highlights the positive attributes of Haiti and indexes my civic engagement to uplift Haitian culturally in my arts and creativities. My work is guided by emotions and the philosophy that art represents a world of possibilities and can be a vehicle for social change for all, young and old. Therefore, as artists, we create to trace affirmative new horizons.
