It was shown to the public for the last time during the exposition "Pour la memoire et la lumière" ("For memory and light") promoted by the foundation Ayiti Bel[2] at the Hotel NH Haiti El Rancho,[3][4] in Pétion-Ville, Haití, between April 11 and April 25, 2014.
Later, it was acquired by a private collector.[citation needed],[5]
On the bottom of the artwork, the artist wrote before his signature: "Par-delà la fureur des tempêtes saisonnières il y a des voix qui parlent et des tripes que saignent." It can be translated as "Beyond the rage of seasonal storms there are voices that speak and bleeding guts."
