"What makes a difference between a photo and an artistic one is the attitude, the light, the right spot and what you do later to the picture," says Hofer.
She explains that taking a photo only costs her half a day, but completing the entire process usually takes her a month.
In sync with her style of photography, Hofer's show has invited an interior designer to make her works better displayed inside an empty space.
Like the exhibition's title On Methods indicates, there's a method to photography and the presentation of pictures, according to show curator Herbert Burkert.
