About Light Traces of Geometry

"Light Traces of Geometry" unique cyanotype and screen print on tissue paper folded and framed. Photography meets drawing and becomes an object. The sketchy elements are fragments of diary entries from a stay in a hotel in Melbourne, Australia. The basic geometric shapes of the folds were defined by the cyanotype with its characteristic deep blue tones. Depending on the angle of view, either the drawing side or the painterly blue side appears.

About Michael Wegerer

My artistic practice is deeply rooted in the exploration of printmaking and its sculptural extension, with the inherent tension between repetition and originality serving as a metaphor for a broader social and cultural context.

In the dynamic interplay between tradition and innovation, my work seeks a nuanced dialogue between materiality and perception, and in recent years the focus has shifted to the tension between colour, form and space. These overlaps become fertile ground for questioning and redefining the boundaries of the artwork itself. With this in mind, my works often deal with themes such as memory, identity and everyday, seemingly banal things and circumstances, inviting a reflective and immersive experience.

My artistic oeuvre sometimes draws heavily on the aesthetics of modernism. Based on basic geometric figures, my works explore the principle of seriality, which is also central to screen printing, and the relationship between colour, rhythm and movement. The interaction between the viewer and the artwork also plays an important role, as does the idea of constantly experiencing the respective work anew by changing one’s own perspective.

Since 2006, I have developed experimental and versatile screen printing techniques during several working stays in the UK, Ireland, Sweden, Australia, New Zealand and China. Subsequently, I founded a screen printing studio in Vienna, specialising in artistic screen printing and graphic design for interior design and art commissions.

Therefore, Collaboration and interdisciplinary approaches are vital to my methodology, allowing for a dynamic exchange of ideas and the expansion of my visual and conceptual vocabulary. It is through this collaborative spirit that my work seeks to transcend the confines of the gallery space, engaging with the public realm and the community in meaningful ways.
