With the human body shapes he creates sculptures in the end les universum. One photograph has been printed in the Kronen Zeitung. He developed the concept of the Light Art Biennale Austria 2010 together with Martina Schettina. Manfred Kielnhofer was born in Haslach an der Mühl, Austria. He is self-taught and works with many different mediums. He works in painting, film, photography, installation, performance and sculpturing. His work usually concerns the human figure and its different forms and movements. The human form is used as a tool, either on a canvas or in a sculpture. “The focus of my art is the peculiarities of the human nature. As an artist, the natural form and movement of the human body poses me a great challenge. The different perspectives and points of view is what I aim to capture and display in my work and foresee it my personal touch.” Visit Kielnhofer’s site at the link below.
