Mit dieser Seite geben wir einen kleinen Einblick
auf unsere Ausstellung in der Art & more Gallery in Wien18, von 22.
bis 30. Dez
This exhibition has been a very thoughtful, retrospective and fun collaboration thanks to today's technology for us.
Although we know each other for 25 years and have worked together in the past, it is the first time Anna and I have exhibited our art together and hopefully it won't be the last.
We both like to use acrylics and other different media - such as ceramic, silver, felt. However the theme we chose for this exhibition has made us reflecting our personal feelings, experiences and thoughts in an individual way, which eventually leads into a common path.
There are also elements in some of the work which are very personal and even could be interpreted as 'art of woman'.
We invite people to come and enjoy HEIM AT Art & more Gallery with us.

Hermine
A. Sammut:
When Anni and
me thought about a common title four our exhibition and we agreed on
HEIMAT (home land) my thoughts started to go wild. My first question I
asked myself was what country actually is my home country, the one I live
in or is it the one I grew up in? Until now I have not found an answer,
but to one conclusion I came HEIM (home) is for me there where I feel home
and this depends not on the country it depends on the people around me,
the people I live and share my every day life and therefore I have more
than one "HEIMAT" Austria the country which shaped the
greatest part of my personality. Parents, brother, grand parents and my
friends which shared my life are still make me feel home every time
I come back. And there is Malta the country I live in now. A loving
husband a son and my new friends, who giving me a HEIMAT (home) away from
home. In this exhibition I want to present my Maltese home country which influences
and inspires my work in the last years, I also want to introduce one home
to the other home and share my present life with the people of my 1st home.
About me:
Born March 1965 in Vienna - ity of music and art. I grew up in a very creative family which was the base of my creativity.
In 1986 I qualified as a teacher. Through self-teaching and attending specified courses I developed my artistic and creative skills and was
permitted to teach Art & Crafts at schools. In 1995 I married a Maltese
and moved to Malta. There I continued my studies at the Art School Ghajnsielem and at private lessons. From 1996 to 2003 I lectured Art,
Craft & Design and German at the ITS Malta. Since 2004 I have participated in & organized exhibitions locally and abroad, showing my
contemporary 3 dimensional artworks, sculptures and jewellery, inspired by the colours of the island Gozo. I like to reflect my impressions,
feelings and thoughts in acrylic paintings, 3 dimensional artwork,
sculptures and designer jewellery. Lately I try to incorporate waste in my work, using the waste product’s colour, media or previous use to
symbolize a meaning and my thoughts. I love experimenting with new media, getting to know properties and characteristics and hope to
have set with my last exhibition
an example of “reincarnation of waste”. Today’s world needs to find new use and value for our creation of waste!

psyche
4 art –art 4 psycheKunst wäscht den Staub des Alltags von der Seele.
Ich experimentiere schon immer gerne mit Farben und verschiedenen Materialien – neu inspiriert durch den enormen Tatendrang meiner Freundin Hermi hab ich jetzt neben den Acrylfarben auch das Filzen – eine uralte Kulturtechnik - neu für mich entdeckt. Im Vordergrund meiner Bilder und Objekte steht aber immer der Ausdruck vom Inneren – ganz nach dem Zitat von Picasso – Kunst ist für mich wichtig für die Seele und die Seele ist für mich wichtig für die Kunst.
In diesem Sinne bin ich ganz glücklich über unseren Titel – HEIMAT- denn Seele und Heimat sind für mich untrennbar miteinander verbunden. Heimat ist mehr als ein Ort - Heimat ist Beziehung zwischen Mensch und Raum – ist Identifikation.
Heimat ist also da, wo wir uns wohlfühlen und wo wir uns verbunden fühlen.
