Interested in rewriting history through weaving, Michaëlle Sergile mainly reworks texts and books on postcolonial theories. Frantz Fanon, often cited as one of the most important authors of postcolonial theories, addressed in 1952, in Black skin, white masks, not only the power relations between colonized and colonizers, but also the relations between the person of colour and their "community". It is through this major work that the codification system took shape allowing the artist to weave books and passages thus questioning cultural identity.

The lexicon of weaving is closely linked to questions of identity. When we weave threads that intersect and form intersections, these are, in a way, discourses that take place. They reflect at times, a cultural mix where the fabric becomes a cross between different cultures. While by others, these threads reflect the intersections of an intersectional thought.

She also questions the relationship between the writings of authors, such as Frantz Fanon, Mayotte Capécia and Félix Mnthali, the place that black women occupy in these postcolonial narratives and cultural identity as well as the notion of the "foreigner" through mediums such as photography and sculpture.

She has been long listed for the national prize Sobey 2022 and has several exhibitions to her credit, one in Brooklyn at the ArtHelix gallery and another in Miami at the Aqua Art Fair.

Michaëlle Sergile worked as an art director and curator for the Nigra Iuventa.
