The ambivalent interplay between violence, beauty, chaos, and order permeates Martin Werthmann's entire body of work, serving as a unifying thread. His large-scale artworks bring contrasting orders to the forefront, allowing them to interact with one another. Werthmann's artistic foundation is built upon press photographs that depict acts of violence, warfare, and other tragic events caused by human beings. Throughout his artistic process, these images undergo a process of deconstruction. At the core of Werthmann's art lies an elusive truth that emerges from the internal logic of the catastrophe and the profound interplay between beauty and horror.
