MUSES: The Exhibition Celebrating Haitian Women Through Art

From March 8 to 21, 2025, the Emmanuel Charlemagne Municipal Cultural Center welcomes a vibrant and emotional celebration of femininity with MUSES, a unique exhibition as part of Women’s Fortnight. This event delves into the very essence of Haitian women, representing them in all their complexity, strength, and beauty through the works of four exceptional artists. Let yourself be swept away by this unique artistic experience that invites you to rediscover women in a new light!

An Ode to Haitian Women: 17 Works, 4 Artists, One Story

MUSES is not just an exhibition; it’s a journey through the many faces of femininity. Seventeen powerful works are on display, created by Garnel INNOCENT, Jean Dieubon PIERRE, Louinel JEAN-LOUIS, and Jeffterlie NONCENT, all residents of Carrefour. Each of these artists offers us their unique vision of women, whether through the gentleness of a mother, the revolt of a warrior, or the grace of a creator. Each painting is an invitation to see women not only as muses, but also as strength, resilience, and freedom.

Art as a Mirror of Society: A Bold Vision by Steeve ANTOINE

Under the direction of Steeve ANTOINE, curator, MUSES becomes much more than a simple visual tribute. "We wanted to create an experience where each viewer can identify with these works and reflect on the place of women in our society. These paintings don’t just celebrate external beauty; they reveal the depth, struggles, and inner strength of women," explains Steeve ANTOINE.

Through these works, the curator aims to open a conversation, encouraging everyone to question the status of women in Haïti and elsewhere. It’s not just about contemplating, but about engaging in collective reflection on the vital role of women in our world.

A Powerful Audience Reaction: A Profound Impact

The exhibition provoked profound reactions from visitors, who were particularly struck by the intensity and diversity of the works. The emotions were palpable: piercing gazes, striking colors, shapes and textures that spoke directly to the hearts of the viewers. Many expressed that MUSES was not just an art exhibition, but a true awakening to the crucial importance of women in Haitian society.

The audience applauded the way these artists captured femininity in all its richness, oscillating between gentleness and rebellion, light and darkness. This exhibition is a vibrant call to recognize the strength of women, not only through words, but also through art.

Why You Shouldn’t Miss MUSES

Don’t miss the opportunity to experience this unforgettable experience. MUSES immerses you in a world where art transcends mere aesthetics to touch the soul. Come discover femininity from a unique perspective, celebrated by the talents of Haitian artists through vibrant, powerful, and moving works.

Meet Edison Juste: An Outstanding Singer

Beyond the chaos, in the heart of the desolation, there are voices that resonate. They shatter the silence, depicting the macabre reality of everyday life in a thousand shards, thus defying evil to give meaning to life and make each day a place where hope flows like a stream of honey. Edison Juste’s voice is one of them: it sings of hope, of love, while praising God. It was in Carrefour, 27 years ago, that the young singer’s sun rose within a family of four children. Edison Juste is the youngest. Between the diplomat, the lawyer, and the entrepreneur that he is, singing remains his greatest passion for this young married man. Like many Haitian singers, Edison Juste took his first steps at a very early age in a choir—Yahvé Shama—alongside children his own age. He would later become the lead singer. This was in 2010. Asked about his first real encounter with music, he replied: q~It was in 2013 that I really started singing. It was during a competition organized by Styl Doz at the Évangélique de la Grâce church,~q, says the active member of the group YES (Yon Enstriman Sen), who also expresses his gratitude to singer Joseph Rhousteau, who inspired and coached him for several years. Edison Juste stands out not only for his style, but also for his versatility. His ability to make the notes vibrate with a moving candor seems limitless. Yet, he has his preferences: q~There isn’t a single style that characterizes me. I see myself as a liquid: I take the shape of the container. Even if I remain haunted by Worship, Compass, and Jazz, he confides. Today, the Carrefour native boasts a rich and varied musical repertoire. From 2010 to 2025, he has grown both in maturity and in renown: five competition wins, his first song recorded in 2018, joining the band YES, his participation in the second album, Se pou m beni, a collaboration with Amos César in a musical, and his contribution to the album Anprent by maestro Berwin Sydney. For him, this journey is already a great source of inspiration. Edison Juste never does without the presence of God, whether in the creative process or during his stage performances: "What influences and motivates me the most is always the presence of Elohim, and the audience’s desire to savor and appreciate my work," he says.
