Zoo-morph #1

Zoo-morph #1 – pictures from the series Zoo-morph by Batia Suter, still in progress. It is an investigation into the material form and the thematic approach of animal sculptures through the history of art. Based on a vast collection of ancient reproductions – a cross-section of so-called “popular” and “elitist” cultures – the fragments are extended and confronted through layering and digital adaptation. The animal becomes an instrument, a means of transport to share a more or less unconscious and symbolic vision of the history of art.

Edition published on the occasion of the artist’s participation in the 4X3 project
