My name is Bedelyn Dabel, I was born in Haiti and had the opportunity to move to America with my dad and sister at a very young age. That move not only sparked my interest in the arts but it give me so many opportunities explore my identity as a black artist. My art explores the theme of blackness, cultural empowerment, and identity.

Looking through my artwork, you will find playful cartoon characters, patterns, blackness, beautiful black women, and clouds. Each of these speak to my identity, in someway they all tie back to my interest of patterns and blackness. In recent works, I have been exploring the character known as FLE. The word FLE translate to flowers in creole. In some way this character represent me and my view on the world when I first came to the US.

I use a wide range of tools to complete my artworks such as the adobe suite, acrylic paints, collaging tools, printmaking tools and glass working tools.
