Description

The work "Croatia 91.12 - Fragmented Memory" reflects the artist's profound impressions of what happened in Croatia during the conflict. The brownish and earthy tones, complemented by radiant accents, create a warm yet melancholy atmosphere. The irregular lines and implied shapes are reminiscent of destroyed landscapes and shattered lives, like an enigmatic puzzle of the past.

The subtle depiction of a human body symbol in the background conveys fragility and vulnerability. The lines and textures scratched and painted on the canvas hint at the scars of history left on the land and its people. Möseneder uses abstraction to capture the essence of loss and hope, with the work opening up a dialogue between memory and healing.
