Medium: Oil on Canvas
Dimensions: 20 inches x 24 inches
Artist: Medha is a 34-year-old Haitian artist living in Canaan, a community in Port-au-Prince nestled between La Plaine and Cité Soleil, two areas often plagued by gang violence. As a skilled portraitist and abstract artist, Medha's work vividly portrays the resilience and daily struggles of life in Haiti. His pieces frequently reflect the nostalgia of a childhood he longs for and his vision of a peaceful and prosperous Haiti.
Description: Hometown Rooster channels the raw masculine energy often read and explored on in litteratures pieces like The Governor of the Dew by Jacques Roumain, where strength, dignity, and connection to the land define Haitian men. The farmer, chiseled features, stands tall and confident, with a cigar in his mouth, exuding rugged pride.
Holding a powerful Haitian rooster against a whimsical backdrop, he symbolizes resilience, mastery over nature, and the unbreakable bond between man and the land he fights to preserve.
