About Traces of a Journey in Gold and Cyan No. 14

The characteristic in this work are the deep blue tones, which are produced by the process of cyanotype, and accented with 24K gold. The emulsion used - applied in the darkroom and exposed to UV light - contrasts with the regularly laid out surfaces due to the painterly gesture, and
depending on the perspective, the drawing or the painterly side comes into focus. Details of the basic shapes were enriched with 24k gold and a small sketch from nature is hidden in each picture of the series.

Screen printing, cyanotype and 24K gold leaf on folded paper
Limited edition 14/15

About Michael Wegerer

Michael Wegerer's 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, his 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, his works often deal with themes such as memory, identity and everyday, seemingly banal things and circumstances, inviting a reflective and immersive experience.

Michael Wegerer's artistic oeuvre sometimes draws heavily on the aesthetics of modernism. Based on basic geometric figures, his 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, he has developed experimental and versatile screen printing techniques during several working stays in the UK, Ireland, Sweden, Australia, New Zealand and China. Subsequently, he 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 Wegerer's methodology, allowing for a dynamic exchange of ideas and the expansion of his visual and conceptual vocabulary. It is through this collaborative spirit that his work seeks to transcend the confines of the gallery space, engaging with the public realm and the community in meaningful ways.
