Vera Nowottny

In my artistic work I pursue two photographic perspectives. One concerns seeing and the situational reaction to external processes, for which I use digital photography. On the other hand, I work analogue, with the camera obscura and sheet films as recording media. This allows me a technical flexibility in the generation of images that cannot be implemented with digital photography. In contrast to the former, these images are created in the head and are not based on sight. The origin of the images lies in an introspection, which I then experimentally transfer technically to the medium of photography. Both objective information and subjective experiences, comments, emotions and sensory impressions play together and allow us to speak of socially critical and culturally relevant topics.
