Oh, Baby, Baby, It’s a White World
Visual proposal by the artist

Dennis Maxwell is a visual artist and filmmaker born in Santiago, Chile. His work expresses his views and observations on the world we live in, representing the injustices, contradictions, and the madness of contemporary societies. This piece, “Oh, Baby, Baby, It’s a White World,” is a reflection on the way that dominant groups impose, through the mass media, a horrifyingly bland and insipid reality.
