While
primarily an economic term, ‘liquidity’ can be interpreted in various ways and across many contexts – from reflections on
fluidity and adaptability to explorations of the shifting nature of social structures, relationships, or identities, as well
as interpretations of transactions and value.Presented in the small vitrine of the Otto Wagner Postsparkasse
five graduates of the University of Applied Arts Vienna open a window into the diverse artistic practices and languages of
Angewandte alumni, offering a range of perspectives that explore parallels, contrasts, or extensions within the given thematic
framework.
In his work Manuel Cyrill Bachinger deals with auditory and visual forms of expression and often with
transformative processes that manifest themselves in experimental and installation-based ways. In doing so, our perception
and understanding of phenomena and technologies are challenged and encouraged to reflect on our interaction with them. Manuel
Cyrill Bachinger is alumni of the department of Digital Art and graduated in 2024.
Bartosz Dolhun graduated 2016
in Drawing and Printmaking, and now focuses on object-oriented work. His sculptures combine materials, especially wood, starting
with found objects and developing intuitively. His work emphasizes processes, using diverse techniques. The use of 'low-cost'
materials contrasts their value with craftsmanship. This focus on process extends to his installative works, where the production
journey becomes integral.
Annika Eschmann studied Transdisciplinary Arts and Drawing & Printmaking at the University
of Applied Arts Vienna and graduated in 2020; and also studied Contemporary Art Practices at the Srishti Institute of Art,
Design and Technology in Bangalore. Annika’s artistic practice is rooted in drawing and printmaking, exploring processes of
translation and abstraction in images. It investigates their influence, limitations, and potential as well as the meanings
generated and transformed through these reproductive processes.
Karina Fernandez holds a Master’s degrees in Fine
Arts and Visual Arts (UNA, Buenos Aires), and graduated at the department of Digital Art in 2023. Born in Buenos Aires, she
lives and works in Vienna today. Her transdisciplinary practice addresses global issues such as environmental degradation
and consumerism, operating at the verge of bio and multimedia art through site-specific, kinetic, and interactive works. Her
installations feature plants, fibers, light, water, sound, bioplastics, motors, and microcomputers.
Miloš Vučićević
is an artist and researcher whose work explores the intricate intersections of ecology and migration. With a passion for understanding
the delicate balance between human movement and environmental change, and its impact on people, he delves into the stories
and experiences that shape his own perspective and the world he documents. Most of his interests are associated with the political
and social paradigms that exist in society, where he endeavours to express his ideas through performative, object-oriented,
and video-based works. Miloš Vučićević graduated at the department of Art&Science in 2023.
