Join artist and videographer Nicolas Hyacinthe for an intimate artist talk and community conversation exploring memory, identity, and belonging through visual storytelling. In The Pearl Unseen: Stories from Haiti, Hyacinthe brings to life the richness and complexity of Haitian identity—its joys, struggles, and the quiet beauty in between—through deeply personal narratives that transcend borders.
Born in Brooklyn to Haitian parents and raised between New York and Port-au-Prince, Hyacinthe’s multimedia work is shaped by duality, dislocation, and cultural inheritance. His evocative photographs, video, and poetry—featured in projects like Encounter Haiti and Hard Edges, Soft Embraces—offer tender reflections on place, family, and resilience.
Following the artist talk, participants are invited to participate in a shared storytelling experience: bring a family photograph or memory and join a collective conversation about the power of archives—both personal and public—in shaping who we are. This event honors the threads that tie our stories together across generations and across oceans.
