Writer, painter and researcher Stéphane Martelly was born in Port-au-Prince. Through a profoundly transdisciplinary approach that brings theory, critical reflection and creation face to face, she pursues a reflexive approach to contemporary Haitian literature, creation, literary marginality and the limits of interpretation. She is the author of two essays: Le Sujet opaque. Une lecture de l'œuvre de Magloire-Saint-Aude (L'Harmattan, 2001) and Les Jeux du dissemblable. Folie, marge et féminin en littérature haïtienne contemporaine (Nota Bene, 2016). Stéphane Martelly coordinates the Centre d'histoire orale et de récits numérisés, and is currently an affiliate professor of research-creation in Concordia University's Theatre Department.
