Gino Tintin grasped his first pencil in 1990, given by his brother JP Tintin, who encouraged his passion for art. Gino has developed his own artistic style after studying anatomy and autopsy of the human body. From this experience came these stringy creatures to highlight the creative world of the Haitian culture, where he draws his inspiration. Gino has exhibited in Haiti, France, and both North and South America.
Gino Tintin (often referred to as Tintin Gino) is a contemporary Haitian artist born in Port-au-Prince, known for his unique “filiform surrealism”—paintings featuring elongated, stringy figures. Inspired by Haitian culture, music, and social themes, his work explores anatomy, spirituality, and Voodoo symbolism (such as the 21 Nations).
