Adopting his mother’s name as an alias to preserve anonymity, Judith Supine has become a prominent figure in the New York street art scene, known for his wheatpastes and large-scale public interventions. In 2007, he suspended a 50-foot figure from the side of the Manhattan Bridge, followed in 2009 by another installation at the highest point of the Williamsburg Bridge. In recent years, Supine has turned his focus to surreal collages depicting monstrous hybrid figures that evoke the grotesque undercurrents of advertising imagery. His works are constructed from image fragments torn from old books and fashion and porn magazines, then manipulated, washed in fluorescent color, and sealed beneath a layer of high-gloss resin.
