Bianca Brunner's work is interesting because of what she doesn't show. There seems to be something just about to happen, or something missing that we need to look for. They are similar to my own in their sense of isolation and I am also attracted to their sense of confusion, which I would like to add more of in my own images. They are uncomfortable and provoke the viewer to ask questions in a way that I hope to do also. The minimal quality of these images is a theme I am constantly attracted to.

"Brunner's characters and interiors probe into the representation of spiritual presence, absence, transcendence, the possibility of transition and rebirth via all these states in a world that may, at the same time, be seen as silent, empty, and only perceivable as a beautiful play between surface, light, and darkness."
'When we touch things, or move in certain ways, the thoughts attached to these bodily functions can pop up"
"Or it can be the other way around; remembering something can unleash certain physical feelings or even movements. This phenomenon . . . the displacement in time that takes place when a latent image suddenly emerges and disrupts the scene of the present . . . is what this work is all about" -the artist
