Sheherazade Thénard

Sheherazade Thénard is an award winning and driven artist, curator and educator based in Miami. Their work reclaims the layered histories of my family’s assimilation from Martinique to the U.S., blending Afro-Caribbean symbolism, Black feminist media, and my experience as a Black queer artist in the South. Through vibrant yet dark palettes, she transforms autobiographical memories into reimagined geographies, creating textured, luminous spaces that evoke belonging, protection, and ancestral connection. As an educator and curator, they are deeply committed to the history of arts and how shared narratives shape community understanding and connection.
