SAMDI is a contemporary Haïtian artist based in Port-au-Prince, Haïti. His work described by the artist as Sen Soley. Painting from a rhythm. A space where self is looking inwards and possibilities are endless. His work consists of cubist style portraits and a semi abstract approach to figuration. Self exploration and the understanding of the spirit as a human in this space are at the core of SAMDI’s artistic practice. His work can reflect deep emotional trauma and at the same time express the beauty of love. The artist lets the audience be the author of their experience as they have to search inwards to make sense of what they are viewing or feeling.

SAMDI has had numerous international group exhibitions. Some of those include CORNERSTONE (Paris Texas LA Gallery (Downtown Los Angeles, California 2018), Carifesta (Trinidad and Tobago National Museum and Art Gallery, Trinidad 2018), Roots of The Spirit (Artserve Fort Lauderdale, Fort Lauderdale, FL 2019.), Surface Issues (MOCA Miami, North Miami, FL 2019). After being the AiR at Studio 401 New York he is currently working on new works in his studio in Port-au-Prince, Haïti. Stay tuned for information on future shows.
