Why We Create
Rooted in creativity and collaboration, BeauFolio Studio offers art consultancy, special commissions, and workshop gatherings that bring vision and imagination to life.
We believe…
-
BeauFolio artists and collaborators view creativity is an act of with-ness—a way of witnessing wonder and sparking connection in community. We believe that to create is to draw out the sacred in each of us and beyond us.
-
Art is more than decoration—it’s revelation. Whether in CreatioDivina gatherings, on wooden pews, or in vast galleries, art awakens imagination and invites us to know differently.
-
Rooted in kombit—the Haitian practice of communally shared labor—sacred creativity at BeauFolio exists in community. Collaboration shapes how we lead, strategize, and what we make together. Our “we” includes you.

Founder & Lead Curating Artist
For over a decade, Carmelle has bridged art, theology, and social impact to help communities and organizations cultivate artistic intelligence and imagination with purpose. In 2022, she founded BeauFolio Studio to integrate artistry with philanthropic strategy, serving leaders and culture-shaping institutions committed to mission-driven growth. As the communal extension of her studio practice, BeauFolio reflects Carmelle’s guiding conviction: good news isn’t only proclaimed—it is created, together.
