BIOGRAPHY

Torsten Lauschmann was born in Bad Soden, Germany in 1970 and currently lives and works in Glasgow. Lauschmann received his MA in Media Art from Zentrum fur Kunst und Medien (ZKM) Karlsruhe and his BA from in Fine Art Photogrpahy from (Hons) Glasgow School of Art.

Torsten Lauschmann's work is concerned with the cross-over between materials, techniques and technologies. Manifested through photography, video, sound, online work, drawing and installation, he finds ways to interfere with technological processes in order to reveal hidden dimensions. Within his installations and films individual pieces are networked, meaning each element affects the way others appear or perform. This interconnectedness raises questions about how technologies can change and impact our collective and individual behaviours.
