Against the backdrop of his sculptural roots Andreas Müller uses photography and video as preferred means of expression in his artistic concepts since 2011, whereby the work is increasingly attributed to the field of artistic research. The materials fog, smoke and light are understood in their ephemerality as convenient building stock for the staging of image immanent questions concerning spacial phenomena of time specifically, as well as transformational processes generally.

Andreas Müller studied sculpture at the University of Applied Arts Vienna under Erwin Wurm, and graduated 2012 under Martin Walde. In 2013 an other diploma in art history on filmtheoretical questions followed at the University of Vienna under Friedrich Teja Bach. In 2012 he was awarded a grant from the Emanuel and Sofie Fohn Stipendienstiftung, 2013 the Startstipendium for visual art from the Austrian Ministry for Education, the Arts and Culture. In 2014 he received a project promotion from the Cultural Department Styria. Furthermore he is part of the curatorial collective at Fotogalerie Wien since 2013, and contributes as an author regularly to EIKON, the international magazine for photography and media art.
