Sinta Werner - The No Make Up Look

About

How do we understand the physical spaces that surround us, and what influence does it have on the construction of truth? 

Sinta Werner explores the manipulation of perception in her work. Her elaborate illusionistic environments mislead and question conventional perspectives and representations. The superimposition of image motif and background and the creation of new perception spaces are central topics in her work. 

The No Make Up Look transforms a discursive situation into an installation. Themes that appear in the installation will be discussed on the podium. An image analysis is performed while the people doing it are part of the image they are analysing. 

With regard to a media expansion, this work will have a temporal and performative dimension which, through the movements of the participants, will transform and distort the image in the image.

Andreas Koch
(Artist, book designer and publisher of the magazine 'vonhundert') operates in his artistic work in the field of tension between shifts, cross-fades and scale-displacement and permeates and questions the visual presence of reality in a surprising way. Andreas Koch taught at numerous institutions such as the Udk Berlin, the KHB Weissensee, Hfbk Dresden or Goldrausch. 

Christl Mudrak
(Artist, Researcher) examines in her artistic work how spaces influence the viewer physically and psychologically. It creates expansive, painterly works that test the capacity of the viewer's perception. In 2016 she completed her dissertation on "Psycho Spaces: Dissolution of Space in the Medium of Painting".
