Description:
Bathed in the golden glow of dawn, Freedom Hour reimagines the iconic Nèg Mawon — Haiti’s eternal symbol of resistance and liberty. Conch shell to his lips, knee rooted to the earth, the figure calls not just to the past but to the future.
This painting captures the precise moment when silence breaks, when freedom is declared, and when a people rise. Inspired by Albert Mangonès’ legendary sculpture, it honors the strength of those who broke their chains and became the soul of a nation. As light pours over the figure, it reminds us: every revolution begins with a voice — and every voice needs its hour.
