SEBASTIAN GRANDE

Born 1989, Vienna

lives and works in Vienna

 

Sebastian Grande studied graphic art and printmaking at the University of Applied Arts in Vienna in the class of Prof. Jan Svenungsson until 2019. His work is dedicated to the alienation of places, everyday objects and his observations of non-places.

 

He sees his projects as venues in which the ideas, desires and personal stories of a society can be found.

ARTIST STATEMENT

"Starting from my photographic archives, in this work I dedicate myself to transit places and their architecture. Marc Augé speaks of transit places, non-places in which one cannot linger and in which there is only one specific way to use them. In the process of printing defragments the formal language of these spaces, which form their own non-place. The splitting and division of the buildings is based on the formal charkter of the given structure. The architecture dissolves, becomes its own condition." - Sebastian Grande
