Susana Giron’s projects weave stories that speak of the everyday. Memory, time, the identity of places, emotions, memories, cultural roots, and the fragility of this intimate universe of experiences articulate her personal and distinctive visual narrative. Her works are generally based on the creation of photographic topics that confront the subject outside the spotlight of today. Its iconography invites reflection, upon a second reading usually something unexpected encourages the viewer to continue discovering. Her personal technique favors the dialogue of emotions that help us to recognize ourselves in places and situations, which, a priori, do not belong to us. This photograph is part of a series, Art Against War, working with Art Residence Aley in Beirut. “Hundreds of thousands of Syrians are refugees in Beirut, Lebanon, including a small community of young artists. In wartime, there is no possibility of making art, you just have to seek to survive.”
