Claudia Ungersbäck
Visual ArtistClaudia Ungersbäck is an Austrian visual artist that lives and works in Wien and has a multidisciplinary background, with studies in fashion design, drawing (Trinity College, Dublin), printmaking (Wiener Kunstschule), animation (Academy of Fine Arts of Krakow) and philosophy (University of Vienna).
I´m interested in the debate between automatism and conscious drawing. In general, my work is focused on the sound of gestures, words and thoughts — the building blocks for art's themes, for writing and for visual works as lived experience.
