In his various projects, the artist transcends the boundaries between the disciplines of design, fine art, publishing, comics, short films and the graphic palette, freely blending his Haitian and New Brunswick inspirations from his adopted country. This tangle of cultures and technical explorations sets up devices that decompartmentalize identity demarcations, through the concept of the mask, for example, which is at once object, symbol and concept, creating a space of freedom where the perception of interpersonal relationships is challenged. His research project draws on the aesthetics of the comic strip to create an animation of moving images.

Following the completion of his BFA at the Université de Moncton, Rotchild Choisy has exhibited extensively in artist-run centers and galleries throughout New Brunswick, including Galerie Sans Nom and Galerie d'art Louise-et-Reuben Cohen and Galerie d'art du Théâtre Capitol in Moncton; the Beaver Brook Museum of Fine Arts in Fredericton; and Circolo art et culture in Campbellton. At the same time, the artist takes part in numerous interdisciplinary projects, combining writing, short film and photo-performance, and is involved in various communities. Winner of the Résidences Quebec-Acadia, Rotchild Choisy is at Gare de Matapédia - Artistic and community Pôle for a month before continuing his residency at the Fonderie Darling in Montreal.
