The gravel
avocado and mango trees
in their green shadows Volcanoes, and their shoot
The paintings breath The paintings move and are moved by the wind the earth
the rain the expanse of rural topics the banana trees that
grow close to the house the self-directed look, or the
introspective intent evolves from picture making, from mark making, becoming
this ongoing contextual collaboration with the jungle of Panajachel
the real topicsof this place This place is sacred because it
was chosen The earth the insects the smell of Panajachel as prevalent in the paintings as
Suter’s own marks upon them. Ruth paintings are suited to what surrounds them, and they are
appropriated by what they are surrounded by. The paintings occupy in multitudes
in conjunction with one another and alone, the paintings occupy. Vivian Suter is
wild and alive. Vivian Suter’s paintings are wild and alive.
Beyond the poetics of self-prescribed distance from the modern world and its chaos, Suter creates her own calendar. The paintings are unstretched, untitled, and undated: tapping the flora and fauna go Guatemala in its folds and pigmentation. There is no separating the jungle from the works for the jungle has been given its own hand, working in tandem and alongside the artist. The escapism and sentimentality of nature is not lost, but celebrated thru surer’s paintings. The paintings are not representations but responses to their environment. Responses to the wilderness of nature, of this environment lived in and worked with by Vivian Suter and her mother, artist Elisabeth Wild.
