A triumph in the art of thematic poetry, Victor Marrero's Atlas, Bound hones in on the subject of Michelangelo's Four Slaves or Four Prisoners, located in Florence's Accademia Gallery. Left incomplete by the sculptor, they are positioned before one of his universally-acknowledged masterpieces, David. The slaves, thus, live out their days bound in unfinished captivity, an indelible sight that finds Marrero ruminating not just on their cruel fate, but on the nature of existence itself.
