Francois Cauvin art takes root in Voodoo, which is the African heritage of Haitian culture. The two main themes, which He have been painting during his whole career, are the representation of the Black woman and the representation of nature, developed according to Voodoo symbolism, binding these two interrelated subjects. These themes are addressed in two ways: in the interpretation of the archetype or by the materialization of gods and goddesses embodied in a common mortal. For many years now, acrylic paint has imposed itself as the main medium of Francois work. He usually use a smooth paste, luminous on a darkened background where his different characters, divinities from Africa and of Mother Nature reveal themselves, emerging from primordial waters.
