About The Artwork

Looking back on childhood holiday adventures among the wealth of slide material recalling vacation tours. In the years between 1956 and 1965 I was taken on tours of a number of European countries as well as Turkey. Impressions of these tours were recorded at the time on colour slides and now I have used these as the basis for my own super-imposures, extensions and what might be termed corrections. The recollections of the journeys are tinged with different emotions. Long stretches meant sitting quietly in the car, obedient and passive. But these sections alternated with episodes during which new impressions aroused interest and curiosity. The fascinating awareness of being so far from home left recollections of many landscapes or city scenes etched deep in the memory. Some scenes are still remarkably familiar; others re-emerge only slowly from near-oblivion, while others remain completely strange and new.

However, this is an illusion because all is one world. I’m interested in different approaches towards life. That’s also why I work using various techniques and materials - one of them being photography. Frequently, the concept already exists before the works come into being. Although I’m also often involved with processes relating to several pictures and sculptures at the same time. Working in three dimensions: “objects to touch and look at” made from stone, alabaster, paper, papier-mâché, wood, everyday objects, things found, the random. Ever since I’ve been a child, travelling to foreign countries has been inspiration and drive. However, we can also travel to inner worlds and explore the unconscious. I like delving into my own depth and likewise be touched by current social topics. I delve into processes that find expression in picture sequences and series. I feel attracted by opposites. Frequently, this results in dyads or triptychs. Occasionally, decomposing things to little pieces may be an essential process because it allows for reassembling them in new order. However, the most significant ambition is diversity, awareness for the accidental occurrence, readiness for fortuity. An appreciation of resources and the reuse and recycling of objects and materials. --------------------------------------------------------------------- https://www.gretaznojemsky.at; http://www.basis-wien.at/cgi-bin/f/77616
