Ti'punch Molotov

Paris From May 19, 2021 to July 31, 2021

Ti'Punch Molotov is an "Arranged Rum" that mixes revolution and claim, remedy and poison, at the same time engine of social power and cause of loss of control, where drunkenness becomes dehumanizing. Ti'Punch Molotov aims to give an account of a diversity of perspectives and performative methods, which question communications and social relations, hierarchical in West Indian society. Ti'Punch Molotov contextualizes social practices related to the creolization of the world and historical and contemporary relations of domination." - Jean-Marc Hunt

"My Condition as a Negropolitan."

Also, it is possible to read in Jean-Marc Hunt's art a certain creolization of the world through these great population movements creating new aesthetic and cultural forms. For the artist this creolization is a way of reinterpreting himself through the other.

In the series Cosmogonic Stories, Jean-Marc Hunt presents a work based on paper. The latter refers to childhood and is considered the primary element of transmission. His works are a way to tell a story without a sense of reading, where each image is a work in itself, and which, taken as a whole, form a whole - a collective memory.

The Black Paper series is made on the off-set plates of France Antilles (the local newspaper). He questions the relationship between France and the West Indies, which is expressed above all through his condition as an Afro-descendant, always inferiorized in a territory overflowing with diversity.

"I love France but France does not know it, it ignores me. "

He also questions a certain neo-colonialism by noting the presence of the Ministry of Overseas Territories, which still today is located in the same premises as the former office of the colonies.

The Baronnerie series, presented for the first time in 2015 during carifesta, is an opportunity for the artist to return to a character from Haitian mythology stemming from voodoo, that of Baron Samdi, the spirit of death who guards the cemeteries.

With the series Bloc Note, Jean-Marc Hunt takes us into his intimacy. We take possession of his wife's notes, tracing their paths and their intimate and professional thoughts. For him, art is also a way to reveal himself.

The series Punch Molotov and Jardin Créole are linked. It is from this garden, at the end of his studio, that these series come. They represent the union of his worlds. We see the street, the traditions but also the stigma of this nature, witnessing their condition from slavery to the present day.

Promoted in 2015 Chevalier de l'ordre des Arts et des Lettres by the Minister of Culture, the artist represents in 2019 the pavilion-off of the islands of Guadeloupe at the 58th Venice Biennale.
