The artist Marina Faust has created a comprehensive and continuously evolving body of work, which is now being honored. After her first years of reportage photography in Vienna and abroad, she began to explore experimental paths in photography in the 1980s.

Her work is characterized by the idea of the photographic gesture of seeing and showing as well as the relationship between image and viewer. Photography forms the basis of her work, from which she developed new forms of presentation.

Faust works with materials and images in a collage-like manner and creates performative installations that enable altered perspectives. Her playful and precise expansion of the medium of photography makes her work unique.
