About the artist
My name is Darron Dashaun Modeste (b. 2005), I am Trinidadian-Canadian, I am from the east coast of Canada and have travelled by car to Alberta when I was very young. I expirenced a rather unfortunate upbringing up until l was around 13, which led me to become vulnerable and ultimately homeless, in and out of high observation adolescent psychiatric wards, until I was 18-19 years of age. I have been learning to express myself, heritage and cultural identity with my art forms while being homeless, and today even now that I am transitioning to living a normal functional adult lifestyle and future. The journey has just begun, the story I need to share will never be finished.
