Bony Ramirez @Water Street Projects, New York, USA

Group Exhibition “YES, CHEF”

Bony Ramirez’s painting is on display at Water Street Projects’ exhibition “YES, CHEF”. This painting of a young man in a lobster costume alludes to the exploitation of the Caribbean by the tourist economy.

 

“YES, CHEF” explores the connections between food, power— the ancestral, erotic and visceral. It highlights our relationship to power, domination, and violence, and in particular how those intersect with desire, consumption, and nourishment. Many of the works on view hold the tension between nurture and violence or care and consumption while also spotlighting the broader migrations of foods, peoples, and cultures.
