Susana Sanromán has been invited to paricipate at The Internet Yami-Ichi at the Tate Modern.
On 20 - 22 May 2016, Arebyte Gallery will join Offprint London 2016 to host London’s first ever Internet Yami-Ichi (Black Market) event at Tate Modern as part of Offprint fair. Sanromán will be one of the 20 local and international artists selected, working mainly in digital and net based practices exploring the potential of online art IRL (In Real Life).

The Internet Yami-Ichi is a celebration, where together we experience the afterglow, off line, as the “buzz” of the Internet wears off. After visiting Berlin, Brussels and Amsterdam, Linz, New York and more, Tate Modern in London is the pinnacle of all Yami-Ichi’s.

This video was shot for the opening nights of Sanroman's exhibition at Leica Mayfair, and Leica Bank in April and May.

THE THINGS WE LEAVE BEHIND aims to highlight the impact of waste, resulting from the continuous production of goods in our societies. It also looks at the effects of phasing out certain activities and industries that are no longer sustainable, as a result of the economic constraints on the system.
This excessive consumerism has had a serious impact on our environment. The amount of debris is ever growing, while managing it is becoming increasingly expensive.
The images portray real scenarios, where the accumulation of waste has occurred naturally; due to a need for disposal, recycling, or as a result of various industries' gradual abandonment of activities that are no longer viable.

The Things We Leave Behind

An exhibition by Susana Sanromán


The Things We Leave Behind is a brand new exhibition of photography by Susana Sanromán. Mostly captured on the Leica S-System between 2013 and 2016, this poignant yet fascinating series of images aims to highlight the impact of waste, resulting from the continuous production of goods in our societies. It also looks at the effects of phasing out certain activities and industries that are no longer sustainable, as a result of the economic constraints on the system.
Excessive consumerism has had a serious impact on our environment. The amount of debris is ever growing, while managing it is becoming increasingly expensive.
Susana’s photographs portray real scenarios, where the accumulation of waste has occurred naturally; due to a need for disposal, recycling, or as a result of various industries’ gradual abandonment of activities that are no longer viable.
Making use of a merely figurative and anonymous signifier, Susana uses the 'mummy' to imply that 'human' presence and society are the catalytic changing forces in the landscape we observe.
In each image, the material used in the 'mummification' relates to the background. The human figure merges into its surroundings, until a complete metamorphosis has taken place.
The mummy, as an aspect of human remains, like the landscape depicted, evokes concepts such as death, waste, neglect, degradation and ultimate transformation.
