Description

The artist duo Video.Sckre merges an imaginative vision of fauna and flora on large-format murals as well as portable canvases. These transformed impressions are derived from nature, shared journeys, observations, and experiences. Their artistic and intellectual approach is to see things not as they are, but as we are. For this play, it is crucial to engage in it without reason, it must not have a reason at all. In their artistic quest, following a playful instinct, they perceive nature as a sanatorium. Its forms and constant changes are the foundation of their work.

Julia Heinisch/Video (*1990, Linz) expands quick, intuitive sketches into large-scale wall paintings. Recurring motifs include animals in motion and the transition from one state to another. The chosen themes are closely tied to the momentary and are in constant metamorphosis. Her works reveal parts of what once was, as well as what is in the process of becoming. She studied Art History at the University of Vienna and Fine Arts with a focus on Sculpture and Transmedia Space at the University of Art and Design Linz.

Frederic Sontag/Sckre (*1988, Ludwigsburg) has been appropriating public space as a playground since adolescence. He experiments with the possibilities of applying color, forms, and their dissolution. Inspired by classic style writing and his training as a stage painter, he bridges the gap between these two worlds. He consistently practices gestural work on vertical surfaces. His input comes from both natural forms and geometry.

Together they own a studio in Linz (Austria) since 2018 and realize national and international mural and art projects.
