Ulrike Königshofer

On Ulrike Königshofer´s series "Zero": Completely without light, photographs were taken with different camera models. The visual information from these photos was strongly amplified afterwards, thus revealing the image sensors in an inverted way.

Ulrike Königshofer was born in Koglhof (A) in 1981, she lives and works in Vienna (A). Königshofer studied at University of Applied Arts Vienna (2000-05) and Kunstgewerbeschule Graz (1995-2000). She took part at many solo and group exhibitions in Austria and abroad.
 
In her works, the artist Ulrike Königshofer often engages with the recording and registration of information about the world. This engagement originated in sensory perception, which takes place as a physical process within the body yet still generates knowledge about externals. How close can this perceived image come to the world itself? Königshofer’s works explore this connection between an object and the extent to which it can be represented.
