Sophie Mercedes Köchert (*1988) is an Austrian photographer who, with her striking advertising subjects, has played a decisive role in shaping the visual identity of Bad Ischl Salzkammergut 2024, the European Capital of Culture. The artist, who specializes in analogue photography, graduated from the New School for Photography in Berlin in 2017 and has since explored a wide variety of fields of photography—from artistic projects to commercial commissions.
OBSERVER OF EVERYDAY LIFE
Köchert proves herself to be a precise observer of everyday life. Her photographs make seemingly trivial things visible and, through dialogue, condense them into atmospheric narratives. Thus, individual moments become a story – about life in the Salzkammergut, about landscape, identity, and change. With great aesthetic sensitivity, a keen eye for detail, and a keen sense of the spaces in between, she succeeds in painting a multifaceted portrait of the region – beyond tourist clichés and idealized depictions.
