The Cuban poet and scholar Antonio Benitez-Rojo in 1992 said: “...of all possible sociocultural practices, the carnival…is the one that best expresses the strategies that the people of the Caribbean have for speaking at once of themselves and their relation to the world, with history, with tradition, with nature, with God. If we provisionally accept this premise…to the carnival, we are in a position to learn more about the intricacies and complexities of the Caribbean as a sociocultural system."

I am a new media activist. I am interested in representing the true myriad of Caribbean dichotomies in my stories and testing the parameters of Creole dialect vernacular. I am also attempting to articulate the principles of Carnival design, exploring Carnival as design philosophy in an attempt to further represent with my drawings, the Carnival aesthetic.
