Welcome to my world of art and design. “Battu” is a Kalinago name given to me by my grandfather, who represented me as a father figure in my life alongside my grandma. He was an afro Carib Indian from Dominica. He was a craftsman, fisherman, and farmer. The machete symbol in our logo represents my humble upbringing and the toil of my ancestors. I was born a multitalented artist who decided to use my skills as my livelihood. I will forever push the limits, which will always be “pure vibes” when I am involved. The simplicity of nature inspires me, and I have always had a passion for art, fashion, and design. My spaces, my style, my art, and anyone who has encounter me will always receive an unexplainable infectious energy of elevation, creativity, and confidence. I believe Battu evokes ultimate tranquillity through my expressions, and I am pleased to have the opportunity to serve my community through art and design.
