About The Artwork

A woman walks through the grand hall at Grand Central Station in New York City, 2019. There's a particular stride that older, solitary individuals adopt in this urban New York landscape. It's characterized by a specific gait, a slight bowing of the head, and a particular manner of carrying a few bags that seem to hang in the air with a certain emptiness. In this city, often resembling a dizzying whirlpool, lonely souls can become impeccably invisible. I believe I was drawn to photograph this woman to serve as a reminder that she is not invisible, that loneliness itself is not invisible, and that the responsibility to see lies with the observer. I come from a place where elders hold a central role in the community. In my clan, as a teenager, we would regularly visit our elders, and they would warmly offer us sweet afternoon snacks or simple evening meals without any airs of affluence, but with genuine warmth and a wink. New York, however, is not such a place. So, here she stands, visible to me today. Admittedly, I may be projecting a bit of "Eleanor Rigby" onto this scene, but let's not digress. I wasn't consciously aware that I was attempting to capture as much beauty and warmth as possible in this photograph. Yet, as I examine it now, there's an ethereal quality that emerges. I invite discerning collectors who appreciate the fusion of art and culture. By acquiring this exclusive piece, you invest in an exquisite work of art and contribute to preserving our contemporary era's essence. Each print in this limited-edition series of 3, with 1 artist's proof (AP, not for sale), is meticulously crafted on archival paper using the finest pigment inks, ensuring longevity and vividness. The price rises incrementally with each edition sold, enhancing its value. Each print is titled, dated, numbered, and personally signed on the verso, with a certificate of authenticity, guaranteeing its origin and intrinsic value.

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.
