Arye Wachsmuth is an Austrian contemporary artist who lives and works in Vienna.
M.M. (Mirrormedia Series/Transluminograms).
A series of photographic appropriations that was conceived before the Covid pandemic.
The photographic works reflect the daily landscape of the print media. In this way, a kind of pictorial diary is created.
Depending on the frequency of reporting in the daily newspapers and the selection of possible motifs, some themes appear more often than others.
Through the superimposition of images, the news and stories collide with one another and therefore "tell" a different story or make room for one's own associations.
I termed the photographic process, a self-developed exposure technique, as a Transluminogram.
Arye shares 2 favorite quotes:
The only interesting answers are those that destroy the questions.- Susan Sontag
One can not say it all- Jacques Lacan
