Three human silhouettes on brick
Iconography:
Suso33's silhouettes are a dinstinguished mark of the artist: these anthropomorphised figures floats between the term of Ausencias (absences) and Presencias (presences). The former intentionally fleeting, immaterial figures composed of aerosols, water or light, appearing in alleys and abandoned areas. The latter are more physical, appearing in solid aerosols and gradient shadows in groups on larger public walls. Through his Ausencias and Presencias, SUSO33 explores juxtapositions of solitude and individualism versus community and collectivism, suggesting an underlying message that personal social isolation and marginalisation may be overcome by a broader collective spirit of openness and coming together.
