The collaboration between Franz Graf and Eva Wohlgemuth reflects two distinct yet complementary approaches to expanded drawing, media environments and the conditions of visual communication.

Rather than functioning as documentation, the publication operates as an autonomous artistic format in which image, typography and sequencing become primary components of the work itself.

Franz Graf’s artistic practice is characterised by an open concept of drawing that extends into installation, printed matter and spatial notation. His works frequently incorporate ornamental structures, everyday visual languages, references to popular culture and ephemeral materials. Printed publications occupy a central position within this approach, allowing serial accumulation, fragmentation and dissemination of imagery while preserving the immediacy and provisional character of drawing. The book or booklet thus becomes both archive and experimental field rather than a secondary reproduction medium.

Eva Wohlgemuth emerged within the media art discourse of the 1990s, focusing on digital image environments, spatial perception and technological mediation. Her work examines how electronic interfaces transform visual experience and communication, often translating virtual or screen-based phenomena into spatial or material formats. Printed publications associated with her practice frequently function as conceptual extensions of installation or media works, transferring questions of virtuality and perception into portable visual structures.
