Biography

Photography itself has been her passion for many years. The digital photography and later the subsequent digital processing showed her new and interesting ways of presenting things that surround us.

Since 2006, Greta Schnall has specialized in nature photography, especially macro photography. She later discovered landscape photography for herself. In 2008 she began with digital image processing, which she soon practiced with increasing effort. Around 2010 she started to work with architectural photography. Especially in this area, she is continuously expanding her digital processing methods to this day. She loves cubism, surrealism and architecture. In her works she tries to bring these themes together.

She is constantly exhibiting her early works in medical practices and clinics in Chiemgau.
In addition to a previous exhibition in Switzerland, Greta Schnall then exhibited solo or in groups in various cities in Germany.
Her latest participations in group exhibitions were in 2019, 2020 and 2021 in Germany, Switzerland, Italy, Spain, United Kingdom, Dubai, France, Japan and China.

Artist Statement

My main focus is photography with extreme digital editing processing. This means that I am creating pictures and graphics from architectural, natural and abstract subjects with often surreal components. My favourite themes are front facades of modern buildings or parts of them, which I'm digitally editing and finally changing it into an abstract digital creation.
Above all I want to show how the simple, often depressing architecture on photos can be changed with image editing in an imaginativ and exciting way. So one should come from the functional to the pure fantasy motive, through which one can be inspired variously.
