The Artist Behind The Creations
Musician and multidisciplinary artist, Sibylle Denis Touat graduated from the College of New Rochelle's School of Fine Arts in New York. She began her career in the workshops of eminent Haitian artists and drew much of her inspiration from the Port-au-Prince Art Center, where she absorbed the passion of its talented devotees for painting, sculpture and pottery.
Sibylle has always enjoyed exploring a wide range of artistic techniques to express her creativity. In the realm of music, she stands out for her practice and teaching of piano and digital keyboards, having developed innovative teaching methods for children. In visual arts, she continually reinvents herself in new techniques of painting, sculpture, ceramics, textile design, as well as in the creation of jewellery and fashion accessories.
