Palanquet started training with Andre Eugene in the mid 1990's. He creates some larger pieces but excels at smaller figurative, and almost narrative, pieces combining wood carving and recycling. �This work represents a man after the spirit has taken over his body. I use the combination of wood, plastic, steel, nails and tyres to represent the strength and force of this mystical thing that has possessed this man�s body. The different materials I use represent the struggles between the flesh and the spirit.�

Born in 1963 in P-au-P, Haiti
