A painter against oblivion, Melchiade Domond, who defines herself above all as a pictorial poet, invents a painting imbued with freedom which gives a second life to the Heroes of our history.
A former student of the National School of Arts (ENARTS), Melchiade Domond wants to make history through her painting. From the era of the Tainos, through colonization and the war of independence to arrive at the post-colonial period, each piece in its collection is a page of history. The color juggler, as he is nicknamed, believes that a painter should have no limits except those imposed by his imagination. He paints free, as if to breathe, exist and inhabit the world. But also create worlds.
In the Culture of Words column, we talk a little about the word “Endividi”, used in the Creole language which retains its pejorative meaning above all.
