Elodie Barth茅lemy is an artist of dual Haitian and French culture whose work explores questions concerning multiple identities and the myriad of relationships woven into the history of human interaction. Elodie uses various mediums to great effect, including drawing, painting, installation, sculpture, performance, participative work, and scenography.

In celebration of Black History Month, Elodie has chosen to exhibit her artworks that transform and deform the codes of The Fine Arts Academy. History painting, full-length portraiture, and marine painting are employed to force each viewer to reconsider important figures and places from the period of slavery. 聽The port of Nantes, the Marquise de Vaudreuil, even the philosophers of the Enlightenment are shown to be connected to the commerce of the triangular trade and, by extension, the crimes committed on Saint Domingue and beyond.

In addition to the two-dimensional works, the installation in the Quai Building evokes the vital relationship between the living and the dead in Haitian culture. Elodie presents the syncretism of Voodoo and Catholicism, complete with the Gued茅s, the intermediaries of the world of death, and the tombs that rise throughout the Haitian countryside.

Since its creation in Fall 2019,聽Black聽and Abroad has been standing strong in its mission to advocate, educate and represent. In our strive to create safe-spaces for Afro-descendant students, it is crucial to also analyze the spaces we all navigate as global explorers. In light of聽Black聽History聽Month, it was important for聽Black聽and Abroad to initiate a conversation around the inclusivity of academia. We must acknowledge the quality of education and the freedom of expression that bring about diverse opinions that already permeate through the walls of AUP. Nonetheless, it is still a valuable discussion that may lead to a greater experience in forming the global citizens we are.聽Black聽and Abroad believes that conversations around this are important as change is an element of society that waits for no individual.

An inclusive classroom climate begins with an inclusive syllabus. It is crucial for us to ask ourselves who is represented in readings, themes and topics or the reasons behind why one group or another is not represented frequently.聽 To foster a culture of inclusivity, equity, and diversity, this is a conversation that must involve all 鈥� faculty, staff, and students. We want to ensure that you are heard, your experiences are valued, and you feel represented as an individual full of unique characteristics true to yourself. We invite respective 国产三级片departments to contribute to this conversation that aims to foster representation of all members of the American University of Paris community.
