Conversations at MOCA – The Aesthetic Languages of Haiti in Diaspora
February 15, 2023 @ 7:00 pm - 8:30 pm
FreeMOCA will host “Conversations at MOCA: The Aesthetic Languages of Haiti in Diaspora: Where is Haiti?” Haiti is a hyperreal, physical, geographic and historical place, a memoried place for immigrants, a conceptual idea and part of a global diasporic re-imaginary all at the very same time.
This conversation, moderated by Jerry Philogene, is a conversation with three notable diasporic Haitians whose work draws on their complex relationship to the place of their birth from the perspective of diaspora: Michelle Lisa Polissaint, Mark Fleuridor and Morel Doucet. RSVP here:
