Pigment print
Markus Schinwald’s work explores the body as a cultural construct, reinterpreting 19th-century portraits with surreal interventions. His pigment prints manipulate classical figures with enigmatic prosthetics, veils, creating a sense of unease. Blurring past and present, Schinwald redefines portraiture through psychological tension and theatricality, challenging traditional notions of identity and representation.
