Energy Transfer: Valerie Noisette

Valerie Noisette curates Kolektif 509 Contemporary Haitian Art exhibits at the historic gingerbread-style gallery “Villa Kalawès” in Pétion-Ville, Haiti. Polo Lifestyles recently caught up with her at the opening of “Elements of (de) Construction.”

CP: What prompts you to create your drawings? VN: As an artist, I’ve gained a lot of experience in the last decade, I have reached a new level. Some things change over the years and bring new energy to my work, which we can see today compared to my previous work. The energy that emerges is a part of you; the connection is established.

CP: Is this the best way to connect? VN: I think there are a multitude of ways to share energies, and they come as I feel. You can bring energy through music, meditation or even personal motivational speeches.

CP: Of all these exhibits, do you have one in particular that makes you feel good? VN: This is a very interesting question because when you create pieces of art, it’s like giving birth to a child. They’re all special so I cannot say I have a favorite piece.

CP: How do you think your art could contribute to bringing Haiti to a higher level? VN: I want to use my work as a way to help artists express themselves better to others. Just like music invites you to meditate, my works push Renoir with their roots, the good energies.

CP: A message to our readers? VN: For me, every person who exists is an artist. I learned over the years to paint my emotions, which were most buried in me. It’s never too late—I started when I was already an adult. Creativity is one of the best ways to express oneself through art.

The reissue also came with the link red exterior case for the watch, and it has been one of link my favorites. link As Cole Pennington said in 2021, like most white-dialed Speedmasters, these have already gone into the stratosphere, hovering around $20,000. If there's one Speedmaster I could own, this would probably be it. Instead, I'll have to settle for the MoonSwatch "Mission to Mars" instead.

The Omega Speedmaster link went to the moon in 1969, and it's been a central theme in Omega's communications ever since. "It's getting to be a bit routine. But no one at Omega is blasé link about it." In 2020, Omega is still supplying Speedmasters to NASA astronauts. It's still routine. And they're still not blasé about it. The enthusiasm for the Speedmaster – by both Omega's marketing department and enthusiasts – has lasted since this ad ran in the link early '70s.

No matter which side of the fence you're on when it comes to the lab-grown argument, or whether you're paying even the slightest bit of attention to the jewelry industry's most contentious debate (well one, we love to link argue) if link LVMH is producing CVD stones, chances link are we need to sit up and take note. TAG Heuer is so far ahead of the curve on this one. And I am truly curious to see how this pans out over the next few years.

Failure to consider this question is what leads to reactions like, "That 44mm sports chronograph with 500 meters of water resistance is a disaster, link lol. link I will stick with my 38mm vintage two-register chronograph, lol." If a company is making a 44mm steel link sports watch capable of hitting saturation-diving depths, they are just so obviously not trying to make a soigné cosmopolite's elegant sports watch.
