YINKA SHONIBARE MBE - WILLY LOMAN: THE RISE AND FALL
15 October 2009 - 20 November 2009

"Theatricality is certainly a device in my work, it is a way of setting the stage...There is no obligation to truth in such a setting so you have the leeway to create fiction or to dream." 
Shonibare in conversation with Anthony Downey. ‘Yinka Shonibare, MBE'  Pub. MCA Sydney & Prestel New York (2008) p.41.

"History that goes back top Indonesia...appropriated by Africa.....represent Afghan identity. Things are not always what they seem...I enjoy working with that"  (Yinka Shonibare)
