More than thirty years ago the Swiss-Argentine artist Vivian Suter moved to the rain forest in Panajachel, Guatemala, to live on a former coffee plantation. Since then she has worked on her impressive paintings in her studio, as well as outdoors. The tropical garden is her playground; her canvases lie on the ground or hang in trees; dust, mud, leaves, and fruits leave their traces on them. Her painting is influenced by organic processes and coincidence—even natural disasters are her material, becoming part of her large, colorful paintings. Containing documentation of her home and personal work spaces, as well as brief statements from companions and friends, the monograph also offers essays, numerous images, and brilliant insights into the artist’s private life
