I use life as my source of inspiration. While soul searching through art, I came to a realization: art heals me in ways that no human can.

I create abstract art that captures emotion, movement, and unseen energy. My work is not confined to form—it’s a language of feeling, where each piece becomes a reflection of inner healing, chaos, and transformation. I allow intuition to guide me, making every canvas a conversation between spirit and expression.
Where do you find inspiration?I find inspiration in life itself—through personal experiences, culture, and the unseen forces that shape us. My Haitian roots, moments of struggle, growth, and stillness all influence my work. Inspiration also comes from within—through reflection, meditation, and the constant pursuit of understanding myself and the world around me.
What would you do with $25,000?I would invest in expanding my artistic reach—funding exhibitions, creating larger-scale works, and building immersive experiences that connect people to art on a deeper level. I’d also develop community programs to inspire and mentor emerging artists, while securing resources to sustain and elevate my creative journey globally.
