Claude started working with Andre Eugene in the mid 1990's and with 'Atis-Rezistans' in 2002. Most of his work is figurative and Vodou-laden. He has created an incredible structure dedicated to Gede in his yard which is half altar and part art installation. He represents the strongest blurring of boundaries between religion and art, citing the spirits as his biggest influence and inspiration. “My whole family is mystical. I asked the spirits that I could do work with my mind and be creative. They told me to do work that is mystic and so I can better understand the mystic. The mystic is an absolute truth. It exist, so therefore I love it.”

Born in 1960 in P-au-P, Haiti
