Profile

Sabine Ch. Orthofer lives in Vienna and began her career as a professional photographer in 1986. Her major field of work is portraiture. Moreover she has also been active in the working fields advertising and industrial photography as well as press and reportage.


Statement

Sabine Ch. Orthofer's approach is compareable to the working method of a painter, except that she paints with light instead of a brush.

She derived her working method from a profound understanding of analogue photography, which dates back to times, when she also experimented with orthochromatic film material and photochemistry of her own making. This serves her as a strong fundament, on which she formulated her digital methodology.

Generally each work stands for its own. Some of them show a high affinity to painting and drawing. Strong colours play an essential role but there are also works in black and white which draw their attention by image composition. Others constitute classical portraits, put in the limelight with illumination and depth of field.

There can be found a variety of glowing lines, soft flowing shapes, appealing colors and a very aesthetic appear of colour gradients and contrasts.
