The Old Man and Varaniassi with Autumn Vines by Caledonia Curry aka Swoon

The Old Man and Varaniassi with Autumn Vines Brooklyn 2013 is a striking giclee print by Caledonia Curry, the influential Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork figure known as Swoon. Released as part of the Swoon Street Series Print Collection in 2016, this signed and numbered edition of 175 showcases one of her most haunting and poetic wheatpaste interventions. Captured in situ, the piece features an intricate black-and-white wheatpaste portrait of an elderly man, placed against the weathered textures of a Brooklyn wall, overtaken by creeping autumn vines and surrounded by vibrant street ephemera. The print measures 19x13 inches and is produced on museum-grade fine art rag paper, emphasizing the detail and tonal richness of the original street composition.

Street Pop Art Symbolism in Swoon's Urban Portraiture

Caledonia Curry's ability to breathe emotional depth into public spaces has made her a defining voice in contemporary street culture. In The Old Man and Varaniassi with Autumn Vines, the figure appears contemplative and weathered, rendered in her signature hand-drawn, cut, and pasted style. The background creates a rich tapestry of decay and life—flaking paint, tags, stickers, and ivy coexist as both natural and cultural decay and regeneration. This synergy between subject and environment reflects one of the core themes in Curry’s body of work: honoring human dignity amid the chaos of urban life. The artwork draws on the language of both graffiti and fine art, blending portraiture with the physicality of the street surface and layering in symbolism that rewards slow looking.
