In Josef Fischnaller 's new series, the photographs undergo a complete transformation, experiencing a unique, fantastic metamorphosis. And what a metamorphosis! Different colors, brighter, more intense. These bouquets appear almost abstract, and some of the portraits resemble mythical creatures.
In his new works, Josef Fischnaller has also approached transience technically. More than ever, he moves away from his métier, classical photography, and incorporates the processes of flowing, running, and yellowing as stylistic devices. Using a technique that he keeps somewhat secret, he creates photo prints with colors that are not actually suitable for this purpose. Thus, these images are also only snapshots, and he reproduces an extremely fleeting state, a relic, in small editions. Fascinated by the frenzy of colors and forms, we immerse ourselves in these sometimes vast, ethereal visual worlds, puristically presented in powerful simplicity on aluminum Dibond under a captivatingly glossy acrylic layer. METAMORPHOSIS! Photographer Josef Fischnaller has never before come so close to painting.
