Candi photography portrait of a woman walking across the expanse of Grand Central Station in New York City, in the year 2019. Her coat is cinched with a simple bow at the waist, possibly concealing her lunch in a humble plastic bag. Her hair flows like strands of copper, and she carries a bag adorned with delicate floral patterns. It's a common sight in this city to see women carrying oversized bags tucked under their arms, and I used to jest with an ex-partner that she was toting a trunk rather than a bag, much like the one pictured here. She wears eyeglasses, a chain, and her gait seems to embrace a subtle imbalance. Her expression speaks of a life filled with experiences and stories, etched into the lines of her face over the years. Above her, elongated figures reminiscent of surrealistic memories linger, evoking emotions and thoughts in all of us. Amidst this vivid patchwork of colors, she continues to walk, her steps leading her toward an uncertain future. The surrounding blocks of color seem to press in on her, and yet, she forges ahead. In her, we can each find reflections of our own journeys, especially as we reach a certain age and accumulate a tapestry of experiences, complete with falls and awakenings. Every day, we press forward, even though the uncertainties of tomorrow remain shrouded in mystery.

www.MA9.co Fine art photography by Marco Aurelio. ARTIST STATEMENT I photograph the individual on the street to create site-specific visual ethnographies. I also photograph still-life as a way of exploring the beauty of design and form in the natural world. BIO Born and raised at the foot of the South American Andes within a family of generational farmers, I was exposed to native oral traditions, pre-Columbian indigenous art and cosmologies, magical-realism experiences, and the sociopolitical dynamics of the region. I earned a Liberal Arts degree from New York University, which encompassed studies in European history, anthropology, and Western philosophy. Starting as a self-taught photographer, I enhanced my craft by attending courses at The International Center of Photography and The School of Visual Arts in New York City. Following a strong academic curiosity, I ventured into archaeology and anthropology at The City College at CUNY and deepened my understanding of writing, music history, and anthropology at Columbia University. Journeys through photojournalism and portrait photography, combined with interests as varied as ontology, Eastern philosophy, physics, and the metaphysical elements in the fiction of Jorge Luis Borges, continue to shape and inform my fine art photography practice. Today, New York City is both my home and a creative sanctuary.
