Centered around themes The Exotic; The Spectacle; and The Collision, the exhibition unfolds as acts of a theater play. In his new drawing “The Privilege of Shadows”, Fuenmayor depicts Schönbrunn Palace as a symbol of regality with an audience of banana trees encroaching on its stage. Gesturing to inequalities inherent to the export-import trade between “North and South”, Fuenmayor conflates time, space, and realities in his work to create a third space for contemplation on concepts of value.
