Through her studies, Gschwantner gained residencies in Greece, Mexico, New York, Australia and Italy.
Gschwantner’s current body of work is quintessentially abstract, derived from her previous occupation with painting her “stranger creatures, peculiar beings, and picturesque figures”. Colorful and eye-catching, vibrant and lively, Gschwantner’s characters inhabit the picture plane, claiming their surroundings for themselves or gathering in orderly groups.
