Lym Moreno (Venezuela)
Master 's degree in Fine Arts from Universidad Nacional Experimental de las Artes (UNEA), Caracas.
Lives and works in Vienna.

In my work, I express exuberance through the fusion of color, form, and texture. Richly saturated with contrasts and layers, my  work reflects the overwhelming abundance of my Venezuelan heritage—its natural opulence and dynamic urban landscapes. The interplay of contrasts—organic vs. constructed, spontaneous vs. structured—shapes my visual language.

Fusion and hybridity are central to my practice. I explore these themes through visual contrasts—overlapping colors, shapes, and shifts between figurative and abstract elements. My human figures are always black, symbolizing hybridity and fusion, rather than singular identity.

Lym Moreno works across various media, including cut-paper collage, paper sculpture, drawing, stop-motion animation, printmaking (woodcut, linocut), and painting, with public interventions under her pseudonym "MOSTA" where since 2004 she has expanded her visual language, experimenting in different contexts and formats.

Paper is vital in my work. Not only because of my early exposure to the graphic world through my grandfather's printing press, but also because of its impermanent, fragile, yet versatile nature. It absorbs time and environment. I embrace its malleability in both two- and three-dimensional forms, hand-coloring it to explore endless contrasts and harmonies. This process is instinctual, shaped by my Caribbean upbringing and its saturated light and colors.
