The technique

The work can not be compared to photography, when she recaptures the depicted scene in a post-process and communicates the result by changing the chemical layers of the crystalline structure of the film by scratching, bleaching and drawing on its surface. Using the unique materiality of photography, Anita Gratzer destroys and manipulates, digging the mirror-inverted and the color-inverted through the image’s physical layers. She erases the unique moment of photography and interweaves her inner expectation without any digital support. The repertoire ranges from unimpeded picture and sober excitement to baroque iconography to sophisticated room equipment. These works go beyond a historic citation or reenactment, they create their own mythos, a whole set of realities, entanglements and iconographic details. The pictures attempt to cling to the present, history and the outlook of individual life.
