Patrick became Crealdé’s Senior Gallery Curator in the fall of 2022. Born in Haiti in 1962 in the province of Jeremie—“the city of poets”—and formally educated in New York, Patrick was first introduced to art by his father Robert Noze and grandfather Andre Dimanche, making Patrick Noze a third generation sculptor and painter. At age 5, he sold his first painting, depicting the celebration of Passover within the Haitian culture, for $50 to a tourist.

He studied at the renowned Pratt Institute School of Visual Arts and graduated in 1990 with a Fine Arts degree with a minor in education. He is a prolific painter, sculptor, curator, illustrator, restorer and creative painter of vintage cars. He creates art work mostly for private commissions in New York and his home in Florida.

His painting style eventually transitioned from a European aesthetic – gained through his academic education – to an Artist of the Americas with African roots. In 2013 he painted an entire school bus in seven days at the Hannibal Square Heritage Center for the Crealdé exhibition “Keeping Haiti in our Hearts”. A custom painted 1997 Jaguar, reflecting his Haitian heritage, sold at the international Mecum Classic Car Auction in Kissimmee – the world’s largest – in January of 2022.
