Profile - Peter Schaeublin
“I do not capture things as they are, instead I am to find and illustrate the message hidden in plain sight”
At A Glance
A Swiss photographer, artist and visual communicator for art, business and across formats.
From documentation to revelation: With decades of professional photography behind him, he now pushes beyond recording reality into shaping it, creating works that merge environmental observation with conceptual depth.
He has a strong relationship and connection with Leica, taking part in a number of their events, including running workshops and giving lectures.
He has a distinctive and attractive visual language. His images operate across scales, often blurring the line between micro and macro. This ambiguity invites viewers to look deeper, encouraging contemplation. This approach has been well received year on year by collectors.

How He Works - Delving into Discovery, A Quest for Depth
Since founding his studio, 720 Grad GmbH, in 1995, Schäublin has created evocative work across travel, nature, architecture, corporate, and documentary photography. His images resist romantic cliché, instead inviting viewers into elemental landscapes where raw energy, silence, and scale converge into a near-meditative experience.
Over the years, Schäublin’s photography has evolved from instinctive image-making into the deliberate shaping of ideas. Increasingly, his focus turns toward concept-led fine art photography, where questions of perception, presence, and transformation take centre stage. In his layered perspectives and shifting scales, the familiar becomes strange - and the strange, familiar. His art is a conversation between mind and eye, a place where the unseen and the unknown quietly reveal themselves to those willing to look twice.
Whether chronicling remote coastlines or the quiet resilience of everyday life, Schäublin composes images that feel both immediate and timeless. His work doesn’t demand attention; it invites it, gently urging the viewer to slow down, look closer, and sense the pulse behind the frame.
For Schäublin, photography is a way of thinking and of feeling: a dialogue between curiosity and restraint, between observation and wonder. The future, for him, remains both shaded and bright, a horizon that continues to unfold with every image made and every mystery yet to be seen.
No Exhibition History Makes For A Pivotal Opportunity
Peter Schaeublin is an artist at a pivotal moment. After decades of professional photography and more, his practice has shifted into a refined, concept-driven exploration. His recent works on the elemental forces, water, fire, air, earth and the traces of human impact, show this particularly well. These mages blur scale and meaning, revealing patterns and tensions normally unseen. Despite his accomplished visual language, further illustrated with humanity’s decisive impact on our own bodies and environment, he has not yet had a formal gallery exhibition.
This makes him an exceptional opportunity for a gallery seeking a strong, mature artist to introduce to the market. His recent move into other media reinforces this momentum, offering a contemporary, exhibition-ready format that interlinks fine art photography, innovation and highlights connection with the viewer.

Why Peter Matters To You
Connective Range - His range is impressive, with earlier work deconstructing the unusual and the exotic. Unusual, in delving into the human and physical effect of salt or cheese making or even PET recycling in Nepal. Exotic also took Peter to Uzbekistan, Normandy, Iceland and beyond. His work can and does connect with many and it does so deeply, as his nearly 20K of IG followers demonstrates.
Nature - Personable, energetic and full of enthusiasm fills a space and excites interest in his work. He is passionate, open to the new and loves to dig deeper and learn, learn, learn.
Interest - While his focus has been on the commercial realities of running his multi-function creative studio company, art is his passion. Inspite of this focus his art photography has reliably delivered sales derived from his personal and commercial contacts in Switzerland and the headlands of Europe. It is estimated he has sold work with the average value of €40,000/year in the last 5 years). With individual editions selling on average for about €500, size and edition number permitting.
Commitment - As life enters an another phase, more and more resources can be devoted to his art. As plans to visit Kazakhstan, Iceland and more in 2026 show. Hence, depending on the opportunity he is also willing to discuss supporting those working to develop his potential, with new ideas which assist with risk management and promotion.

Artist’s Statement
My work begins with the real world, its elements, its textures, its shifting states and then moves toward something deeper: an attempt to reveal the unseen structures, rhythms and tensions that govern our environment, our sense of place and our perception of it. For many years, my photography focused on documentation: recording landscapes, cultures and atmospheres with precision and clarity. Over time, that was no longer enough. I found myself looking for what lay beneath the obvious image, searching for the sublime within the ordinary and the extraordinary alike.
Today my practice sits between observation and interpretation. I, for example, use natural elements, such as water, fire, earth, air, and even salt, as raw material, then I work with scale, perspective and light to reframe them as abstract visual worlds. These images are not intended to provide answers. They are invitations: to pause, to look more slowly, to question what is being seen, and to recognise how much of our perception of all is shaped by memory, emotion and imagination.
This shift has also changed my views on the various mediums available. Alongside the more traditional, I now looking to create, collaboratively or by myself works such as digital artworks designed to live with the viewer in new ways as they open new vistas too. The opportunity to extend the viewing experience across spaces, various points of view, size and more via screens etc is worth diving into. The aim is simple: to expand how and where art can be encountered, without losing its authenticity or depth, and to create a signature piece which builds on my practice to date, and is known as the piece which makes art, using digital, as relevant as my physically displayed works.
My ambition then is to explore forces and their abstractions across scales, from intimate details to vast visual fields and to continue evolving a visual language that balances clarity with mystery. If my work encourages someone to look twice, to feel a moment of quiet astonishment, or to see familiar materials as something newly alive, then it has done its work.
