ABOUT THE ARTIST

Stefan a Wengen, born in Switzerland and now based in Düsseldorf, deals in his oppressive and atmoshperically charged paintings with cultural codes. As such are the “disconcerting” and the “alien” in his art a consistent source for his image findings. At the core of his work are the uncanny, the phenomenon of fear and the various layers of subconsciousness. From the formal point of view are his paintings based on the media of film and documentary photography. The old pictorial genre of the portrait, always unsettling a Wengen’s work, also occupies an important place.
