The human body is a central focus in Philipp Gufler's mirror painting series. Looking at the work, the spectator is confronted with their own image. To make these works Gufler uses a silkscreen printing technique on mirrored glass in order to produce layers of translucent pigment. "Gufler’s ‚mirrorical’ art passes through the looking glass; his spaces are traps for the gaze. The reflective surfaces and diaphanous scrims in his oeuvre function as projection screens and as obstacles in games of identification and disidentification; recognition and misrecognition; self-performance and self-alienation.“ Sven Lütticken Concept/Editor: Philipp Gufler Design: Sabo Day Text contributions: Philipp Gufler, Sven Lütticken Photos: Julika Rudelius Silk screen print: Philipp Gufler at Grafisch Atelier Hilversum
