A spokesperson describes the event as follows:

“...New Orleans’s arts triennial Prospect.6 will showcase original work by the prominent Haitian-born artist Didier William, including large-scale paintings and sculptural works that are evocative of the Atchafalaya Basin and its distinctive cypress swamp forests…

...Didier William is mixed-media painter whose work focuses on constructions of blackness that include the nuances of diasporic identity, and his own experiences of immigrating to the United States from Haiti. His paintings undermine traditional aesthetic, racial, and gendered dichotomies in order to reimagine the personal and collective histories..."
