CARMEN RIEGER (IRIS) was born in Romania and has been living in Austria for almost 21 years. A graduate of the Faculty of Industrial Design she has worked for many years as a furniture designer. Since 2018 she has experienced a whole new style inspired by the organic forms that fluids create in their movement. She called this new style Fluidism. For IRIS, her style Fluidism is a tribute to the most fascinating, important and complex fluid on Earth, without which life cannot exist _ WATER. Water is witness to the interconnectedness and interdependence of all living things. For the artist, water is not only the flow of life, but also an expression of spirituality. It is a sacred gift of inestimable value that we must take care. For IRIS, water is an expression of love and interdependence of all life forms on the planet and in the Universe. Water unites all of creation into a whole of boundless beauty, diversity, and complexity. The water in our body reminds us of the beauty and the unique chance offered to be present in everyday life, to witness the magnificent spectacle of life. Her artworks are composed of intricately organized, organic forms inspired by the movement of fluids. In the bodies of humans, plants and animals, water is found in a proportion of 70% or even higher. Thus, in the summer of 2018, IRIS had the idea of drawing only the liquid part of the bodies without completely destroying their original shape and character. In a person's portrait, for example, their character and inner life can be recognized. An elephant is transformed into a new elephant through a complex ensemble of colors and organic shapes without losing the idea of ​​an elephant. A bird remains a bird without losing the idea of ​​flight. From the beginning, the artist chose to use the 7 colors of the rainbow and the shades obtained by combining them in all her works of art. She wants to bring beauty, hope and love to life through her art.
