By Batia Suter

Surface Series—created by Batia Suter between 2008 and 2011—contains images and fragments from other books. The initial version of this sequence was brought together for a site specific installation at Culturgest Porto. The recurrent use of photographic images is a common denominator in the work of Suter. Since the 1990s she makes use of enlarged photographic images to cover entire walls of exhibition spaces, exploring trompe l'oeil effects and the relationship between the inside and outside of those spaces. With the same methods she makes her books, like specific exhibitions on paper.
