“My creative process is informed and inspired by memory, fantasy, surrealism, popular culture and the decorative and ornamental arts. This inspiration has manifested itself in years of collecting diverse materials that often serve as muses in my daily practice and as actual, physical elements within my assemblages and installations. My continued focus is on the universal themes of identity with references to design and nature, as well as the interconnectivity between my Haitian heritage (including the larger Caribbean community) and global cultural mythologies while concurrently considering feminine and historic tropes relative to contemporary cultural politics.” -Vickie Pierre
