About this artist
About this artist
Pierre-Sylvain Augustin, known as Payas (December 12, 1941 – October 23, 2026), was a Haitian painter born in Pétion-Ville, Haiti. He began painting in 1997 under the influence of the late Saint-Soleil artist Prospère Pierre-Louis, and he is associated with the continuation of the Saint-Soleil movement. In 1998, Payas was included among “The 13 New Saint-Soleil” painters and exhibited at the Institut Français d’Haïti, an early milestone in the Haitian art scene. That same year, his work was presented at the World Bank in Washington, D.C., extending his reach to an international audience. In 2000, he exhibited in Paris at the Musée de la Halle Saint-Pierre in Haïti: Anges et Démons, an exhibition of contemporary Haitian artists drawn to spiritual and symbolic themes. Alongside his artistic practice, Payas served as a pastor of a Baptist church in Soissons-la-Montagne. His paintings carry a personal, spiritual outlook shaped by his faith and his connection to the Saint-Soleil tradition.
