Digital print artworks by Norbert Brunner

Author Norbert Brunner presented his digital print artworks in Claire Oliver gallery. To create even more catchy art he used LEDs, mirrors and Swarovski crystals. 

Austrian Norbert Brunner uses time and space as a sounding board for the viewer’s personal reflection; it is the Artist’s approach to self actualization. Brunner’s mirror objects reflect not only the viewer, but also superimpose messages across their visual path, insisting they become an interactive part of the installation. Brunner coaxes us to confront the possible by making his text visible only when we stand directly in front of it, forcing us into the center of the work itself and asking us to formulate our own interpretation of reality. This is a positive confrontation; he wants us to come away empowered and energized. By adding a philosophical sense of humor to the reflection, Brunner resists outside pressures and transcends the prevailing negative environment rather than simply “coping with it.”

Ligh design by Johan Lindstén. Meltdown is an interpretation and attempt to make something beautiful from the disastrous nuclear accident in Fukushima. Would an actual meltdown occur and what would the impact be?
