Jannis Uffrecht (*1991) is a visual communication student at Bauhaus Universität Weimar (Germany). In summer 2017 he was on exchange studying multimedia art and sculpture at Belas-Artes in Lisbon (Portugal). Last year he has been selected for the artist residency Studio Vortex by Antoine d'Agata in Arles (France). Currently, he is shooting for Bauhaus 100.
Experience gives way to understanding. The desire to get to the essence of things leads him to elevate objects, surfaces and contents to a level free of context to then release them into a new dialog about interpretation. Impulsiveness is both contradiction and instrument of his structured and almost manic work method. — by Vera Heinemann
