"Carl Juste's Haiti's Hope Leogane Haiti"
Photo By: @Carl-Philippe Juste / Iris Photocollective
Under the threat of persecution, Haitian-born Carl–Philippe Juste and his politically active family were forced to flee their homeland in 1965, eventually settling in Miami’s Haitian community. Since 1991, Juste has worked as a photojournalist for the Miami Herald. He has covered national and international stories for the Herald, including assignments in Haiti, Cuba, Pakistan, Afghanistan, and Iraq.
As part of his ongoing independent work, in 1998, Juste co-founded Iris Photo Collective (IPC). In 2016, he won a prestigious Knight Foundation Arts Challenge grant to complete Havana, Haiti: Two Cultures, One Community, a book and exhibit of photographs and essays about Cubans’ and Haitians’ lives and shared humanity. Juste opened IPC Art Space in 2019 to further engage the public with the arts. He won Oolite Arts' Creator Awards in 2019 and 2021.
