Promises Kept transcends the typical art book, melding elements of autobiography, biography, and regional cultural history into a profound exploration of artistic meaning. Its unveiling has the potential to quietly, insistently, prompt a re-examination of Newfoundland Labrador's (NL) cultural and artistic landscape.

In a moment of profound inspiration, c. 2000, Filli�re draped the easel with a single link of rusting chain, elevating it instantly into austere metaphor, projecting something of the artist's own Prometheus Bound fate, while retaining artistic commitments: promises faithfully fulfilled, wherever/whatever the circumstance.
