stylistics

Möser finds his motifs predominantly in the world of legends and fairy tales . The imagination of the peoples, the creativity that lies in the art of storytelling, and above all the visionary hope that is expressed in the stories, episodes and legends, cast a spell over the artist from the start.

However, he does not limit himself to conveying the content of traditional narratives using the medium of graphics. Rather, he picks up on typical scenes and creates new, surprising situations through subtle alienation . The viewer is actually immediately “in the picture” and recognizes familiar motifs, but is then immediately confronted with the adventure of discovering new things and recognizing new connections.
