The Suns in our Life (Prezans solèy la nan lavi nou)

Louisiane Saint Fleurant

Haiti Friends Collection

This painting explores humanity's relationship with the sun. The composition centers on a unique figure with two distinct faces surrounded by intricate patterns and designs. The figure's arms stretch upwards in a gesture of reverence, cradling a large, dominating yellow circle in the upper portion of the canvas. This circle, representing the sun, emphasizes its paramount importance in our existence. The face looking upward symbolizes humanity's constant search for enlightenment and guidance from the sun, while the forward-facing visage represents our grounding in the tangible world. This duality captures the essence of human existence, a balance between the celestial and the terrestrial.
