An unconventional symbiosis between photography and painting allows Astrid Bryder to conceive stimulating works in which she challenges the ideas behind figurative/documentary photography. Highlighting the role of memory in our perceptual process, the multilayered experience provided by her works urges the viewer to question the standard perceptional parameters, walking them into an area of intellectual interplay between universal imagery and perception. One of the most conceiving aspects of Bryders’s work is the way she probes the expressive potential of the medium, to explore the liminal area in which reality and imagination find an unexpected and consistent point of convergence.
