The Quench Project began as a fundraising venture to support the people of Haiti, who continue to struggle years after the 2010 earthquake. While in Haiti, I took photos, shot video and made sketches.  From those, I have created paintings, a short documentary and this book.”

The Quench Project is a story of survival, an exploration of human desire and the many ways we cope with our longings. It consists of a series of paintings, photographs, some included in the book and a short documentary, called Out of Darkness on Amazon Prime, is intended to celebrate the resiliency of the human spirit.

Here is an excerpt from the upcoming book, “Quench.”

“The Quench Project started with a question: how could I use my God-given gifts to further my mission on Earth? I raised money through Kickstarter to pay for my trip to Haiti in November of 2014, where I took photos, shot video and made sketches. Watermissions International and The Bread of Life Orphanage will be receiving 50% of the net profits from the project.”

Renown Charleston artist, Robert Maniscalco, best known for his distinctive commission portrait work and Fine Art has created a series of paintings, called “The Quench Project” from his vision trip to Haiti.

“The Quench Project” explores alternatives to societal ideas about beauty, tragedy and survival.  Robert has created an ongoing series of paintings. His theme is the resilient nature of humans to rise “out of the darkness.” One purpose of the project is to create awareness around the water crisis many are facing in the world right now.

Robert says, “throughout The Quench Project my goal has simply been to give a face to the ‘faceless hordes.’ When seen as a wash of humanity it is easy to lose sight of the individual. My intention in coming to Haiti was not to document the misery of the masses, or even to find a few representative faces to win sympathy in the States. My goal was to find out, through my art, how a people, one person at a time, and in a million different ways, is finding a path to survival.”
