Description:
Lumane Casimir captures the quiet poetry of a woman and her guitar, a dialogue between silence and melody. Draped in teal and bathed in gold light, her profile radiates grace and introspection. The red guitar becomes both companion and confession, carrying echoes of longing, love, and resilience.
Jean Batiste’s minimalist precision and bold palette evoke the cadence of Haiti itself — a nation that sings even in stillness, finding harmony in reflection and strength in beauty.
