About this listen

Originally released in April we think it's worth inviting our new listeners to our conversation with Morel Doucet.

In fashioning the object, Morel Doucet pays homage to the assassination of Haitian President Jovenel Moïse, who came from humble beginnings. Morel's piece commemorates Mr. Moïse's legacy and the fragments of his vision for the Haitian people. The butterflies that grace the face of the object are symbols of transformation and hope. The stark white porcelain head pays homage to Morel's grandfather's cup of coffee he would casually drink after his evening work on the farm.
