Oefner was born in 1984. His photographic work is found at the interface between time, space, fiction and reality. Inspired by science, his approach to art is very methodical, yet playful. He produces many carefully orchestrated pieces that are planned down to the tiniest detail, while also producing pieces that are very much influenced by chance. Oefner’s work is found in numerous public and private collections around the globe. Reports on his art have appeared in Der Spiegel, National Geographic and The New York Times, among others. He is currently living and working in New York.
