*1993, lives and works in Basel, CH
Raphael Reichert is a multidisciplinary conceptual artist mainly focused on video and installation. In the base of his work is the process of collecting and assembling different material into a collage of images, sounds and words. His motivation is to deconstruct and reconstruct cultural and social topics in order to rethink conventions and prejudice. The material he uses varies from excerpts of daily newspapers, stock footage as well as self-taken imagery, interviews led by the artist and scribbles from his notebooks.
He uses these collections as building blocks from which he creates subjective commentaries ranging from documentary approaches to colorful and absurd thought experiments.
