Anna Gonzalez Suero holds a PhD in Art from Goldsmiths, University of London. As an artistic researcher, she works with autoethnography to explore the aesthetic dimensions of medico-technical images appearing on screens and as models, with a focus on the visual and material cultures of gynecology and obstetrics. Gonzalez Suero works on challenging fundamental ideas around images with medical origins by engaging different materials and media, including drawing, video, text, and collage.
Gonzalez Suero has shown her work at a variety of different locations, including Alpha Nova and Galerie Futura in Berlin, Galerie Diana Stigter in Amsterdam, and at the International Symposium on Electronic Art. She has held artist residencies in various locations, including the Foundation Künstlerdorf Schöppingen (Germany) and the Akiyoshidai International Art Village (Japan).
