Beatrice Celestin [twixC], Founder | Co-Partner at KREATA Creative & Digital Art Expo in Petion-Ville, Haiti

About

As a creative/artist, I like to challenge myself into being daring with the works of Art that I do and feed my curiosity on how Society perceives it. I love to experiment with materials and medium and mixing the traditional and digital ages to have a result that stands out, the is different, daring, compelling.

As a Graphic Designer, I want to work into a limitless frame of mind by working on projects in Haiti and other places in the planet particularly Personal Projects. I love working and I choose to work on projects where the client is open enough to accept to step out of the box and differentiate. With my experience in the printing industry, Graphic Design becomes even more interesting as I play with the different printing materials and experiment on different solutions to get a products that really stand out.

Specialties: Branding & Identity, Concept Development.
