Walter Moroder

Walter Moroder (born 10 May 1963 in Ortisei in Val Gardena, Italy ) is a contemporary South Tyrolean sculptor and draftsman.

Moroder represents his subjects standing in a waiting posture with slim proportions without any recognizable relationship to the real space - except for the floor - and mostly without a pedestal or elevation.

[3] In the design of the details such as clothing, hands, feet, mouth or throat encrypted gestures and archaic images similar to the Greek, Egyptian and Asian influences in conjunction with elements of a non-everyday life-world can be observed.

[4] Moroder represents well known opposites between visible and invisible, male and female, concealment and nudity, body and mind, feeling and psyche.

[7] A number of individual works illustrate the disappearance of the human figure or they turn out to be precarious existences in sewn, perforated, segmented bodies or torsos.
