“Ayisyen Mwen Ye” (I am Haitian) May 5th, 2017 - August 19th, 2017 | Little Haiti Cultural Center
“Ayisyen Mwen Ye” celebrates the work of a new generation of Haitian and Haitian-American artists along side a selection of seasoned masters that have inspired and paved the path for new creative voices.
The work featured in this exhibition spans across a variety of artistic media – painting, photography, textiles, poetry and installation art. The range of works highlight the continued growth and trajectory explored by Haitian artists and the rising generations of artists that utilize new forms of media to tell their stories and share their artistic visions.
In homage to the wisdom of the elders, this exhibition will draw upon the tradition of Haitian proverbs, which form a connecting thread between past, present and future.
