Carlo Sampietro is an Italian mixed media artist based in New York City. He enjoyed a successful career as an art and creative director at advertising agencies in London, Milan and New York before shifting focus to contemporary art.

ARTIST STATEMENT
I am a mixed media artist working to heighten public awareness by visually demonstrating cultural issues.
My process begins with the act of observation— assessing the complexity of the culturally rooted traditions and social issues that inform and shape people’s lives.
