Gašper Kunšič, born 1992 in Slovenia, studied at the University of Applied Arts Vienna, the Academy of Fine Arts Vienna and at Städelschule Frankfurt am Main. He lives and works in Frankfurt and Vienna.
Gašper Kunšič often uses his own biography as a point of departure for his artistic practice, adopting exhibition processes to alter the course of private and collective histories. Encompassing mixed media many of his works incorporate visual references from his native Slovenia and larger ex-Yugoslavian space and manifest as spatial installations through which the artist translates personal relationships into trans-media forms.
