Originally from Innsbruck, Austria, Matthias Brunthaler studied Graphic Design at HTL Bau & Kunst. His work moves between graphic design and photography, guided by a sensitivity to patterns, structures, and abstract forms found in nature.

His images often arise from unexpected perspectives, revealing details that might otherwise go unnoticed. This shift in viewpoint becomes both method and intent.
Brunthaler has exhibited at the Museum Wattens and recently began collaborating with PRINTED PRINTED, extending his work into new contexts.
