Description: "Fabricated Realities by Alejandro Rizzo is a series of staged photographs about the current socio-political and economic issues within the context of Venezuela. In this particular exhibition, two photographs from the series are displayed. One aims to directly reflect on the general perception the Venezuelan population holds in regards to the military's authority. While the other aims to depict the hardships of daily life in Caracas, including people doing long line-ups to buy groceries, and pushing cars manually because of lack of gas. Using the language of documentary-style photography, he creates digital photo-collages that mix personal memory with larger issues." (Source)
