While Mare Undarum translated the secrets of the moon into music, Sélène's second album Potomitan (2022) explores her Caribbean cultural and family heritage through a fictional folklore fuelled by improvisation. When she is not on tour, Sélène is engaged in research projects as part of an international residency programme focusing on the Caribbean's cultural interaction with a wide range of countries around the world. Sélène has also created a non-profit organisation called Afropolis, which aims to promote and develop new forms of traditional music from Martinique.
