Alain Jean-Baptiste

Alain Jean-Baptiste is a Haitian-American artist whose work explores memory, identity, and the narratives of his homeland. Born in Boston and raised in Haiti, he lived there until the devastating 2010 earthquake uprooted his family, leaving an enduring impact on his life and art. Painting became his refuge—a way to process the chaos and loss that followed. While always drawn to art, Alain began pursuing painting seriously in 2017. Primarily working in oil on canvas, he continually experiments with new mediums and techniques. His paintings challenge the distorted narratives often associated with Haiti, offering an intimate and authentic reflection of its culture, values, and people. Through his work, Alain seeks to reclaim and share Haiti’s stories on his own terms.
