The Process
Haiti: History Embedded in Amber was a collaborative project produced in the Haiti Laboratory of the Franklin Humanities Institute during the 2010-2011 year. Led by renowned artist Edouard Duval-Carrié, it brought together faculty, graduate and undergraduate students, and visitors in the process. It is now on permanent view in the “Garage” at the Franklin Humanities Institute, at Bay 4 of the Smith Warehouse.
An opening for the piece took place on September 9th, 2011.
A catalogue describing the process and providing analysis of the piece will be published in September 2011, and made available as a download on this page.
