About this artist
Renowned Haitian artist Jean Amil Augustin blends vivid Caribbean tones with European influences to create acrylic paintings that explore memory, identity, and the balance between joy and sorrow. Born in 1974 in Les Cayes, Haiti, he developed a self-taught style shaped by surrealism, abstract expressionism, and figurative art. Today, Augustin’s expressive works reflect cultural richness and personal storytelling, securing his place in contemporary Haitian art.
