Photopaintings Love Affair By Markus Schaub

A hybrid of photography and painting

In this project, I wanted to use the Smartphone camera to find quaint, poetic imagery that contrasts with the usual images taken around the globe by the millions every day with the Smartphone and then disseminated on social networks as narcissistic staging of one’s self.

“For me, the Smartphone camera is like a brush that I can use as a simple instrument. This gives me the opportunity to concentrate on the motifs and not to be dependent on elaborate photographic technology”.

The pictures taken show mirrored rooms, landscapes and atmospheric pictorial content, which, through their poetic play of colors and forms, allow a diverse reading.

The Concept

Using a Smartphone to find images that are only available for a short time, for example when I am very close to an object or take a photo through something, is a joyful discovery of the otherwise invisible.
