Mark Fleuridor

Mark Fleuridor (born 1996, Miami, Florida) is a Haitian-American artist whose multidisciplinary practice explores personal history, family, religion, memory, and the visual textures of Miami and the Caribbean diaspora. Working across painting, quilting, collage, patternmaking, photography, and performance, Fleuridor examines intimacy, ancestry, and storytelling through layered compositions that draw from family photographs, tropical landscapes, domestic space, and diasporic cultural memory.  Fleuridor received his BFA in Painting from the Maryland Institute College of Art in 2019. His work often engages Haitian background, familial religious experience, archival imagery, and the subtropical environment, using painting, quilting, collage, photography, and found materials to consider how memory and inherited narratives shape present-day identity. Recent descriptions of his work emphasize the way he reconstructs family, friendship, and home through layered visual language rooted in both ancestral lineage and the lived atmosphere of South Florida.  His work has been exhibited at YoungArts, Untitled Art Fair, Prizm Art Fair, Sperone Westwater, Johansson Projects, and the Art and Culture Center/Hollywood. He has completed residencies at Oolite Arts, Oxbow, Vermont Studio Center, Anderson Ranch Arts Center, Atlantic Center for the Arts, Art Omi, and the Textile Arts Center. Fleuridor received the Oolite Arts Ellies Award in 2020 and the Knight Champion Award in 2022. He lives and works in Miami, Florida.
