This limited edition softcover art book contains 22 pages of work created by artist Verena Paloma Jabs for the exhibition "Carnivale" at 38 Leopardo, Roma. It is 20cm x15cm
"For Carnivale I combine a traditional medium with modern technology: Using silhouette paper cut out techniques- invented by Lotte Reiniger in 1919- with digitally manipulated collages, I create images evoking an uncanny and dreamy look.
I wanted to convey a notion of something antiquated yet modern, a hybrid of age-old fairy tales and sci-fi lullabies. A child-like and seemingly innocent silhouette-scene in the foreground is morphed with a digitally created background of dystopian landscapes, naive wonderlands, dark dreamscapes, and uncanny woods."
