Murat Brierre (1938-1988) is considered one of Haiti's principal metal sculptors. He was influenced by George Liautaud. He worked as a mason, cabinet worker and blacksmith. Although he also painted, Brierre chose to concentrate on iron because of his belief that metal is imbued with spiritual powers, a central belief of the Vodou religion. His highly experimental style often focused on mulit-faceted and conjoined figures.
