Fátima Rodrigo
Press release
In Fantasía herida, Fátima Rodrigo (Lima, 1987) explores the frictions present in the construction of our imaginary and affectivity, through the exploration and extrapolation of elements from popular culture, the entertainment, fashion and design industries. The story in which Fatima immerses us is neither linear nor unidirectional. In it, a visuality loaded with fantasies and desires is shown as a space in constant dispute, where exploitation, discrimination, exclusion and invisibilization of the past, inescapable to the ideals of progress and western modernization, reappear under new forms and configurations. Fatima’s work then dwells on marginal details of the images she examines, as if they were small wounds, which allow her to make out certain power dynamics that still persist in the production of images in Latin America.
