In 1991, a young woman full of disappointed dreams lands in Montreal from Haiti. Painting becomes her outlet to release all the horrors and demons entrenched in her soul. The pallet is composed of bright pastels that are applied as thin washes. However, the drawing predominates.

Tinted images of distress and nostalgia, sadness and anguish, evoking loneliness and drift appear. In a figurative style, painting on large formats, she chooses to honor the figure of the woman. Tirelessly, she paints and depicts the pillars of Creole society; women of modest origin, women brutalized by the hardship of an existence, women who face up life with courage and pride.

Her work, tinged with spontaneity and improvisation, reveals an unconscious message. In a stubborn search for emotional resonance, the artist seems to penetrate the secret life of her model and slowly the quiet pain of reclusion emerges.
