Pascale Theard

BORNE into a mixed culture of a haitian father and a french mother, Pascale Théard grew up in Port-au-Prince, surrounded by the rhythm of drums, the crisp sound of leather being cut, the artisans’ laughter resonating in the air and merging with it. Smells, colors, sounds and raw materials have nurtured her childhood and have drawn for her, as accurately as Vèvès designed with lime on the floor, a powerful identity, between tradition and creation.
