Original Painting, 2025

Malcolm X

Faisant partie de sa collection Face-Off , cette petite série d'œuvres originales réinterprète les figures emblématiques de la lutte contre la violence et du leadership noir avec une touche de modernité : Malcolm X en Ray-Ban, Martin Luther King avec un durag. Kervens Fils mêle réalisme et commentaire culturel, tissant un lien entre passé et présent d'une manière à la fois familière et radicale. Une vision audacieuse de l'héritage, qui remet en question notre perception de ces personnalités et du monde qu'elles ont façonné.

The Artist

Kervens Fils

Kervens Fils Art has been channeling his creativity since early childhood in Haiti, using art as his primary means of expression. Self-taught through magazines, videos, and fearless experimentation, his talent was later refined by mentors who recognized his potential.

After immigrating to Canada in 1994, Kervens was deeply influenced by his uncle Jean, a passionate activist who used art to advocate for Black rights. This transformed Kervens' childhood hobby into a lifelong pursuit. As a teenager, he turned his skills into a small business, customizing t-shirts and shoes. Though he earned a Diploma of Vocational Studies in automotive bodywork, his passion led him to tattooing. Mentored by Don Bouchard, he became a professional tattoo artist in 2014 and opened his own studio in 2020.

Now, Kervens is dedicating more time to painting, seeing it as his true calling. His work spans figurative, abstract, and realism, each piece a reflection of his drive to push creative boundaries and fulfill his purpose.
