Stefanie Sargnagel
Stefanie Sargnagel was born in 1986 and studied painting in Daniel Richter's class at the Academy of Fine Arts Vienna. However, she spent more time at her day job in a call centre, explaining: 'Whenever my professor, Daniel Richter, turns up at art student parties, everyone suddenly starts behaving as if God is talking to his disciples. I never know how to deal with it because I am God.' She has been a freelance author since 2016 and has spent more time with her tax consultant since then. She received the BKS Bank Audience Award at the 2016 Ingeborg Bachmann Prize competition. Her two books, Statusmeldungen and Dicht, were bestsellers and the former was made into a film.
