Constanze Schweiger
Constanze Schweiger portrays people in staged situations providing space for an encounter. The presence of the models is to be understood as a personal gesture and is a subjective contribution to the resulting artwork: Anything someone does becomes significant. On a formal level personal interaction becomes abstract and generates meaning.
In her work she deals with the possibilities within the individual's sphere of influence, especially with the formal aspects of ordinary actions and decisions. Two activities are therefore brought together—sharing a social moment and painting.
