Liddy Scheffknecht
In her photographic sequences, videos, installations, "light and shadow" projections, Liddy Scheffknecht (*1980 in Dornbirn) explores the relationship between temporality and perception, creating and breaking illusions at the same time. In her works, she expands the temporality of the photographic standstill through video projections. The result is a medial hybrid between the static and the moving image and between the photographic and the film medium. In addition to computer-based imagery, the artist uses analog light and shadow projections created by direct sunlight.
Her works were presented in solo shows at 22,48 m², Paris (2024), Georg Kargl Fine Arts (2018 and 2016), Remise Bludenz (2016), at the Galerie der Stadt Wels, Wels (2015), at Kunsthaus Graz, Graz (2012), amongst others.
2022 Scheffknecht received the Outstanding Artist Award for Artistic Photography from the Federal Ministry of the Republic of Austria.
