Like many artists, Blaise's paintings can sometimes be read as a comment upon current events. "I have been influenced by the political changes. I have not made an Aristide (former Haitian president Jean Bertrand Aristide) fish, but, isn't it possible that every fish can become president?" Something of this humorous cynicism is certainly evident in his more recent work. In these well-crafted paintings, the fish have been joined by doll-like human figures. Sometimes these figures are seen walking hand-in-hand with the fish, while at other times they trail behind. In one painting we see these figures for the puppets they really are, with Blaise himself holding the strings of the puppet-master.

Andre Blaise has participated in many expositions in Haiti, France, and the United States. He currently lives in Carrefour with his wife and two children. His work has been featured in the following publications: 1990 Dialogue du Reel et de L'Imaginaire; 1992 L'art Haitien a la Rencortre de l'image d'Epianl; 1997 Artistes en Haiti, Cent Parmi d'Autres; 2000 Peintres Haitiens
