Description:
In Erzulie Dantor, the artist honors one of the most powerful and revered lwa in Haitian Vodou. Fierce protector, mother, and warrior spirit, Erzulie Dantor embodies the complexity of feminine strength — capable of deep love and unflinching justice.
Depicted here as the Black Madonna with child, her piercing gaze and crowned presence command reverence. The baby in her arms symbolizes legacy and resilience, while the vibrant halo and richly colored robes reflect her divine authority. The yellow background radiates with the spiritual heat of devotion and sacrifice.
Rooted in the struggles of Haiti’s revolutionary past, Dantor is often associated with the Haitian women who fought — and continue to fight — for survival, dignity, and independence. This painting is not just devotional; it is a visual invocation of power, pride, and protection.
