I love the fact Raul Lopez trucks a few parlour palms into whichever venue he decides to show his Luar wares. It's like a piss-take on a salon setting, a nod and a wink to tropes of fanciness which, like so many other received notions and accepted ideas, Lopez seeks to gleefully invert. Why can't feathers not only smother a dress, but sprout from cuticles and eyelashes? And for all genders alike, no constraints, no boundaries.

The Carnival x Nike folding chair is decked out with details sneakerheads can appreciate. Built with a sturdy aluminum frame finished in sleek black, it's wrapped in tough 600D polyester fabric in a bold, unmistakable Nike orange. Even the armrests come cushioned for comfort, while the rectangular stitch pattern around the Carnival and Nike logos gives it an elevated touch.

For me, costume has always been part of everything. Culturally, I grew up in Venezuela seeing costume not as something separate from daily life but as something deeply embedded in it, especially through the lens of carnival.

Sega of America's Michael Cisneros emphasized, "While 81 may seem like a big number, Issue 81 is a fantastic spot for new readers to jump into the series!"

The opening day of 'Carnival' at Jeffrey Deitch Gallery attracted a large crowd, showcasing a perfect blend of curator Joe Coleman and the carnival theme.
