Brooklyn billboard exhibit highlights Haitian diaspora art in time for Haitian Heritage Month

A new public art exhibition titled "Ansamn" (meaning "Together" in Haitian Creole) opens April 25 in Brooklyn, featuring the work of Haitian-American artist Mel Isidor. Her mixed-media collage, part of her "Roots" series, honors her late aunt Yolette and incorporates archival family photos with original photography from a road trip through Haiti. The month-long billboard exhibit, presented by SaveArtSpace and curated by Yvena Despagne of Art x Ayiti, runs during Haitian Heritage Month.
