SALLY BINARD

Sally was born to first generation Haitian and Belgian immigrant parents who exposed her to two vastly different forms and styles of art. This had a remarkable influence on her work. Early and continuous exposure to the Dutch Masters in Belgium and Holland, along with the rich Haitian art scene provided a confusing, eclectic, and exciting idea of what art was.

In 2022, Sally was the reciprocant of the South Florida Cultural Consortium Fellowship for Monroe County. Her work is a poignant method of assigning meaning and permanence to times that cannot be shared with others through verbal language, but can perhaps be shared viscerally, through painting.
