We are presenting our residents, selected through the Open Call for the E-ROUTES In-Residency Program in late 2023.
Hertha Miessner belongs to the generation of artists who switched from painting to the medium of photography and new media.
“Cardinal red, piles of fabric shimmering velvet and crackling silk, an alternation of light and shadow” – Hertha Miessner creates digital images that are like old master paintings. However, the baroque opulence is one with perfect virtual illusion created using photographic means: the deceptive aesthetics of the digital image world is therefore the theme in the artistic work by her.
On her travels to international residencies (e.g. China, India, Mexico, Vietnam, Bangladesh, Italy) she has developed installations and serial projects using a wide variety of media.
