About the Artist
Torsten Lauschmann's diverse practice continually shifts and plays with expectations of images and the interpretation of meaning. He is concerned with both the aesthetic content of images and the 'decoding' of meaning and narrative. Lauschmann also focuses on the mechanics with which meaning is created, by counter-intuitive and wayward, but always humane, manipulation of technology. Lauschmann's eclectic, idiosyncratic and multifarious practice is not led by the desire to produce formal coherency, but by the artist's interconnected interests in the science, the personal and the absurd. Since moving to Glasgow in 1993 to study Fine Art Photography at Glasgow School of Art Lauschmann has been exhibiting, screening and performing his work throughout the UK and internationally.
