The Remembering: Live Charcoal Studies
by Bacheler Jean-Pierre
Created live during The Remembering, a multidisciplinary exhibition by Naika Colas exploring Haitian agriculture, labor, handwork, and cultural memory, this series captures themes of inheritance, resilience, and identity. Through expressive charcoal portraiture and figurative studies, Haitian artist and musician Bacheler Jean-Pierre transforms memory into form, honoring the individuals and histories that continue to shape the Haitian diaspora. The collection serves as both a reflection on the past and an invitation to imagine the legacies we create for future generations.
