ABOUT THE ARTIST:

 

Füreder takes most of the motives out of TV images and keeps them firmly in filmic connections, which are quite moments. On this working process the artist uses conventional instruments like a camera or a computer, to edit the image. The own perception of the caught moment determines the transformation from the photo to the picture.

 Füreder´s paintings are usually a kind of silent aesthetics, which are consciously overlapped with contents, letters, quotations or just with pieces of early abstract paintings.

The artist very often enters the threshold of the essential conditions of human being and reaches the border between life and death, erotic and sleep, but also hope and mystic. It depends on the viewer himself on which level the paintings touch him.

The contents are being transferred with a special kind of pressure technology on the paintings which are created before.

 

Very often Füreder takes photos of the painted picture and faces them once more at the pc. Then she puts the pressed elements above the painted subject. By this way a further deliberate estrangement can be reached.
