Rachel Domond

is a self-taught Haitian visual artist and organizer living in Brooklyn, New York. Her art explores themes of solidarity, sovereignty and pride and draws on both her Caribbean heritage and the rich histories and cultural significance of people’s movements in the U.S. and abroad. Through various art forms – including painting, printmaking, muralism and digital art – Rachel seeks to make art that speaks to working peoples’ realities under the structures that attempt to keep us disenfranchised and disempowered, while highlighting the beauty, resilience and ever-growing power of the roots from which we’ve grown.
​
Influenced by the works of artists such as Emory Douglass, Elizabeth Catlett, Claudia Jones and her own bloodline, Wilmino and Ezene Domond, Rachel makes dignified work that uplifts a clear message – art cannot be neutral; it must take a stance, and that stance must be informed by and rooted in the movements for the full liberation of our people.
