Virtual Exhibition
This exhibition speaks to the trajectory of Haitian artmaking since that time as well as to the many physical and metaphysical journeys taken by the Haitian people. We at the Waterloo Center for the Arts hope that you will see in this presentation the artists and their antecedents, the movements and their branches, the rituals, ceremonies, and symbols of spiritual expression as well as the happy rhythms and inevitable judders in life’s journey.
