Surya de Wit is best known for her portraiture in which she incorporates a variety of unconventional materials with an aim to create a sense of tangibility to the audience. Her portraits are inspired by her experiences and how she identifies with people that she encounters. Her work is characterized by her vibrant melody of colours and materials that are used cohesively to create the atmosphere and portrait that she wants to depict. She recently returned from Bolivia where she was working with indigenous female weavers in a rural community in Bolivia, to promote their creativity and to explore other creative outlets outside of weaving.
