Roots and Realism: A Haitian Artist's Reminiscence

"Roots and Realism" showcases Lacroix's hyper-realistic oil paintings and charcoal portraits, capturing the vibrancy and essence of Haitian life during the 1970s and 1980s. The exhibition offers visitors an immersive experience into the rich cultural heritage of Haiti as seen through Lacroix's eyes.

In addition to the exhibition, an artist talk titled "An Intimate Chat with Haitian Artist Sophia Lacroix" was held on May 16, 2025, at the Ali Cultural Arts Center. During this event, attendees had the opportunity to engage with Lacroix as she shared personal insights about her life and artwork featured in the exhibition.

For those interested in experiencing Lacroix's evocative portrayal of Haitian culture and history, "Roots and Realism" remains open to the public until June 21, 2025. Visitors are encouraged to check the Ali Cultural Arts Center's official website or contact the center directly for more details on visiting hours and any associated events.
