Svenja Deininger - Untitled

Svenja Deininger (*1974 in Vienna, living and working in Vienna, Milan and Berlin) is known for her paintings, for which she applies and removes multiple layers
of paint. An experimental process, which is resulting in very precise and calibrated works. But also photography plays an important role for her artistic practice, as one can see in her artist-book Echo of a Mirror Fragment (Ed. Secession, 2017, Vienna).
For her edition she exchanged with Manuel Gorkiewicz photographs, which both artists reworked. Deininger chose a striped piece of layered canvas to cover parts of the photography that is showing a handful of blueberries on asphalt. She painted the strip on a larger canvas which she cut into 25 pieces, questioning uniqueness, originality and reproducibility of painting and edition either way.
