Matthias Weischer

“As if one walks into a long deserted room in which time is preserved and yet there is a feeling that the former inhabitants could return at any moment…Weischer furnishes the spaces, placing props — the “image in the image,” still life, and drapery. He shifts perspectives, breaking through walls to allow views of outside. In the exact ornamental arrangement of details and the strong material backgrounds Weischer plays with reality.” — Prague Bennale

“Matthias Weischer’s paintings use architecture as a central theme to explore the possibilities of spatial illusion. His elaborate depictions of interiors are pure invention based in a quiet subversion of logic. Through the banality of design, Weischer presents a state of contemporary consciousness where model living is reflected as both desire and anxiety.” — unknown
