From Deep Carnivale's website:
"Artist Statement: "My work as an artist is about life reflections on how we can transform our attitudes through a simple decision. I constantly reflect on how we live, the social conditioning and how it can imprint our conscience. It is also part of my work reflections how mass media influence, molds and manipulates us. Likewise, the anxiety of consumption translated into object possession that creates a negative impact in our quality of life with its consequences. I tend to utilize black and white as a symbol of balance/contrast in our interior self. It also represents life contradictions/ opposites. The use of objects as the umbrella and the hook helps me mirror different actions and conducts like protection and opportunism. I have incorporated words and newspaper clips as a way to show how reading evokes thought pondering in order to answer many of our uncertain paths in life. My work is all in all about philosophical questioning used to reflect on the elemental, and at the same time, monumental questions of who we are and where we are heading to. That is the reason why my work try to advocate for the personal initiative of taking control of our destinies staying close to who we really are, rejecting manipulation, a decision that I consider is mainly within our reach."
