Pinocchio, the character of Carlo Collodi, is part of the oldest memories of my childhood. Although I considered to personify the good Geppetto, who in his goodness as a father recognized in Pinocchio a being desperately seeking his own identity, who stumbles upon his weaknesses and who is in the eternal search for meaning of existence and loneliness in the face of the crossroads and obstacles of life, I opted to address the macabre side of the story from the perspective of one of Pinocchio's executioners. The above is due to the fact that, although the original story has been overshadowed by the version that has become predominant —and which is also tragic, but less so— few know that Pinocchio's story has very dark moments, such as when he throws a hammer at the talking cricket leaving him dead, or when the scammers, the fox and the cat catch Pinocchio and decide to hang him in an oak tree. Another reference is the work of the Italian painter Walther Jervolino (1944-2012), who produced more than one piece showing Pinocchio being beheaded or killed with arrows.

Carlos Henaine was born in 1971 in Puebla, Mexico, and holds a degree in Computer Systems Engineering from the Universidad de las Américas, Puebla. His self-taught training as a designer led him to establish EXPLORARE, a design studio that began its activities in 1997, coinciding with the internet boom. In its early days, the studio focused on multimedia design and web development. From the year 2002 onwards, he decided to expand the studio's activities to meet the demands of visual communication, including corporate identity, editorial design, packaging, and environmental design. In 2008 and 2011, he was honored with the Quórum Award and has won a silver mention, three bronze mentions and a total of ten finalist works in that contest. In 2009, the INBA awarded him an honorary mention in the Fifth National Design Biennial. Between 2007 and 2015, he won seven first places in the a! Diseño Awards. In 2012, he was selected to be part of the first Mexican Design Directory 2012, co-edited by Centro and ProMéxico. In 2014, he was invited to participate as a judge in the a! Diseño Awards. In 2016, he received an honorary mention in the first edition of the Diseña México Award. To date, his work has been published in nine books by HOW and Rockport Publishers, internationally recognized authorities in the field of graphic design. As a specialist in visual communication, he currently explores different paths in the expression of visual arts, using photography as a medium to create art. He portrays human reality through the rawest and most authentic emotions, capturing the interplay of darkness and light in people. As an emerging artist, he has participated in several group exhibitions and presented his first solo exhibition in 2023 at a renowned art gallery in his hometown.
