Carlos Martiel is a Cuban performance artist, whose work could be described as an aggressive comment on the ethics, history and behavior of the world.
His provocative and raw performances explore the nature of existence, social barriers and cultural traditions. His work is a form of disagreement against the established values, through physical expressions that remind one of rituals and ceremonial procedures. Commenting on issues such as censorship or persecution for cultural or political reasons, especially in his country, the artist sees his performances as a response to the way society and history have treated the minorities and the outsiders.
