The medium of Swiss artist Daniel Karrer (Binningen 1983) is painting behind glass, which reminds him of the visual presence of images on a computer screen. The artist applies paint and scrapes it off again with a palette knife in a targeted manner. This creates sharp edges that repeatedly bring his works - landscapes, portraits, and still lifes - closer to a digital aesthetic. Through the multi-layered composition of the picture, Karrer exhausts the possibilities of the medium glass: The illusion of depth and three-dimensionality of the motifs is further enhanced by the glass and its reflection. In 2017, Daniel Karrer received a recognition award of the STRABAG Artaward International.
