The island of Ayiti, known today as La Hispaniola, has had a historical identity charged with segregation and violence since its inception post-French and Spanish colonization.

As a result of such early separation, both sides of the island’s socio-political and socio-cultural structures grew apart, but both sides are not as different as people claimed.

One island in the middle of the Caribbean undergoes such a division, but the landscape blessed with a unique nature remains intact and suggests that it is a single land.

The Caribbean Blues Series captures the blues and scenery that the Caribbean Sea and the Atlantic ocean offers on both sides of the border, with a melancholic narrative. It shows the homogeneity between the Pedernales and Anse-à-Pitres, and Monte Cristi and Bossus landscape that shares the (south and north) last stretch of the border between the Dominican Republic and Haiti.
