The Artist

Paul "KINI" Firmin

Born 1995 in Boston, MA — Haitian-American painter, sculptor, and storyteller. KINI's practice explores the marriage between the physical and spiritual, reflecting on love, consciousness, and duality through a strictly black-and-white language.

Currently based in South Florida, his work bridges the seen and the unseen — pulling imagery from shadow that feels simultaneously familiar and enigmatic.

In these compositions, darkness is not a void but a fertile ground — a source of infinite potential. I delve into the shadows to pull forth imagery that feels both familiar and enigmatic.
