Biography

Myrlande Constant  (1968- ) is a Haitian textile artist specializing in Vodou-themed flags, or drapo Vodou. Constant has transformed the genre, opening up the once male-dominated field to women. One of her innovations to the medium was incorporating tambour into the flags. She works in reverse so she does not see the full design of a flag until it is finished. This allows her to work intuitively.
