Artist Profile

Nea E. Antoine

Inspired by stories from the East, world mythologies, and her own Caribbean culture, Nea Antoine has always been “a child of the arts,” singing and performing from an early age but something was always missing. After experiencing category 5 Hurricane Maria in 2017, she was compelled to take a leap of faith and began to explore more visual expressions.

Upon joining the Waitukubuli Artist Association in 2021, she assisted with a variety of projects which refined her illustrative skills. There, she experimented with varying materials such as wood panels, reinforced concrete walls, and canvas. These projects allowed her to take initiative, utilizing traditional and digital painting mediums, including acrylic and oil paint, as well as digital programs.

Today, Nea’s creative journey has brought her to Vancouver, where she is currently pursuing a Bachelor’s degree in Fine Art. Presently, Nea aims to create ethereal, and whimsical works that bridges historical Caribbean culture and aesthetics, to fantastical storytelling, rooted in cultural heritage. In time, she hopes that these works will examine human relations with nature, in an emotionally provocative manner.
