Haitian art is a complex tradition, reflecting African roots with strong Indigenous American and European aesthetic and religious influences. Many artists cluster in ‘schools’ of painting, such as the Cap-Haïtien school, which features depictions of daily life in the city, the JacmelSchool, which reflects the steep mountains and bays of that coastal town, or the Saint-Soleil School, which is characterized by abstracted human forms and is heavily influenced by Vodou symbolism.
