Picture N. 2 of the photo series "Duality" (2022) Photography by Susana Orta

Since 2020, Susana Orta has established herself as a self-taught photographer, drawing on a rich background in architecture.

She turned to digital photography as a privileged means of combining reality and the imaginary.

His photographs offer an aesthetic perception of the human body, and sometimes, of urban or rural landscapes. His work, as a whole, manifests a deep observation of humanity, by looking at societal issues such as the protection of biodiversity and gender disparities.

She explores the human body through her self-portraits, where she exposes her own body to natural light. She devotes a large part of her creative process to breaking down her appearance into geometric elements, illuminated or in shadow, to propose a new vision of the female body.

Simplicity is a notable characteristic of his photographs. It avoids any superfluous complication in order to convey a precise message. This is why the majority of his works are in black and white, only integrating color when it is intrinsic to the concept.
