About

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

My work explores exuberance as a visual and emotional force through the fusion of color, form, and texture. Using saturated palettes, strong contrasts, and layered surfaces, I draw from the abundance of my Venezuelan heritage—its lush natural environments and dense urban landscapes. These references inform a visual language shaped by intensity, balance, layers, and rhythm.

Fusion is central to my practice. I create compositions through a balance between organic forms, spontaneity, and structure, moving between figuration and abstraction with a strong affective presence. Human figures are consistently depicted in black, symbolizing mixture and reflecting the complex and heterogeneous nature of Venezuelan culture.

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 a fundamental material in my work, both conceptually and emotionally. I am fascinated by its tactile presence, durability, and malleability. My early exposure to the graphic arts through my grandfather’s printing press established a lasting relationship with the medium. I work with paper in two and three dimensional forms, hand coloring it through an intuitive process that deepens my engagement with materiality, memory, and transformation.
