In the context of the series Last Suppers, which features overpainted and digitally edited vintage photographs, transcendence represents a subtle yet profound dimension. Through layering and digital editing, the images become portals that transcend traditional boundaries of time and space. An essential aspect of this transcendence is the condensation of social energy.

Each work captures and intensifies the collective emotions, interactions, and cultural imprints of its time and moment, creating a bridge to the viewer and the now. This concentrated energy resonates beyond the visual, inviting viewers to experience a timeless and metaphysical dimension. Last Suppers thus transforms the photographs into symbols of expanded consciousness, enabling a deeper connection that extends beyond mere representation.

EN | daniel rojatz is a photographer and artist living in Austria. He has worked in the field of visual communication and art for more than 20 years.

As an artist, he focuses on abstract compositions, alienation, and density of detail, mainly based on old photographs, fragments of posters, and found objects, weathered and drawn by time. His ‘overpainting’ is closer to calligraphy than to traditional painting, as it focuses less on depiction and more on transformative gestures. it is a search for the moment when documentary becomes an object of creation, the moment when it no longer suffices as mere description and offers the opportunity to transcend what has been seen and found.

‘I’m in search of the aura of the real that was lost in between the original trace and its countless reiterations. I encounter forms and shapes along the way that seem alive, like ghosts. These moments I keep and share as a tribute to their kindness.’
