Intertwined roots: colonial memories and plant resilience.
Memories Series - Taiwan.
Ludovic Nino approaches memory as a network of interwoven narratives, where landscapes become the silent repositories of colonial histories and cultural resistances.
His new series, , draws its inspiration from the parallels he draws between the Caribbean and Taiwan, two territories marked by complex colonial legacies. Fig trees, with their invasive roots, become metaphors for the layers of memory that persist despite historical upheavals. In his ink drawings on Korean paper, Nino superimposes symbols of the resistance of Maroon communities in the Caribbean and traces of Japanese colonization in Taiwan, where these trees embody both the oppression and the resilience of the local populations. His works function as visual archives, where each drawn fig tree carries within it fragments of often marginalized or forgotten narratives.
By depicting these trees that simultaneously smother and preserve the vestiges of the past, Nino underscores how collective memory takes root in landscapes, transforming them into silent yet persistent witnesses to struggles and cultural adaptations. For Nino, memory is not simply an inheritance: it is a living process, where past and present constantly confront and reinvent each other.

Presentation
Ludovic Nino is a contemporary artist born in Paris in 1990. Born into a family originally from the countryside of Saint-Marie in Martinique, he was raised between the metropole and the Creole stories transmitted by his father, which deeply influenced his artistic vision. Graduated from the Beaux-Arts in Paris, he won third prize for contemporary drawing from the Cabinet des amateurs de dessin des Beaux-Arts de Paris in 2019.
His work explores the remnants of colonialism, issues of memory, resistance and cultural metissage in compositions combining minerals and plants, highlighting historical layers and tensions between nature and human construction. Nino is particularly attracted to wastelands, ruins, and marginal spaces, which he sees as places of struggle and reappropriation by nature and marginalized cultures. His works, often created with ink or paint, evoke landscapes steeped in history, where Caribbean, Japanese, and Taiwanese heritages meet.
In 2023, he participated in an artist residency in Kaohsiung, Taiwan, at the Kio-A-Thau Art Village, where he developed a series of works inspired by Taiwanese landscapes, Japanese colonial ruins, and native vegetation, particularly banyan and flamboyant trees.
This residency allows him to explore his views on cycles of construction and destruction, as well as the resilience of cultures in the context of colonial history. His recent creations, such as the series “Présence" (2024-2025), illustrate this confrontation between abandoned architecture and invasive nature, symbolizing the metamorphosis of identities and territories.
Ludovic Nino has presented his work in several group and solo exhibitions in France and abroad, notably at the Salon de Montrouge in 2025, the Fondation Clément in Martinique, and during the Kio-A-Thau residency in Taiwan.
His artistic approach, combining poetry and politics, questions the traces of the past and the possible reinventions of spaces and memories.
