Sak pasé?!
I'm Michaëlle.
phonetic pronunciation is meek-eye-elle
As a multidisciplinary artist & writer,. my work explores movement, texture, emotion, and transformation through fluid abstraction and monochromatic forms. Through ink marbling, acrylic paint pours, and compressed charcoal, I enjoy creating pieces that reflect my Haitian and African Diasporic heritage. Beyond the canvas, I have extended my creative vision into orality and literary arts. The podcast Narratives from the Black Diaspora and Beyond remains a platform for critical conversations around Black/Blak cultures, heritage, identities, and health.
My artworks have appeared in a variety of contexts, from intimate group shows to large-scale public projects. Some of the more recent exhibitions include Postcards from the Edge (Visual Aids, NYC), Small Wonders (Avondale Art Alliance), and the Midtown Outdoor Gallery Street Banner Project (Midtown Art Alliance), where her imagery entered the public sphere on a larger scale.
Living in the Atlanta Metro, I remain committed to growing my artistic practice while contributing to the vibrancy of local artist community. Ultimately, I aim to celebrate fluidity in all forms while offering casual viewers and admirers an opportunity to explore my most varied nature. Away from studio time/hermit mode, you can usually find me with friends and/or at a local EDM show. Special mention to the bookshop, love a good story.
