Miezes Frühstück und Skizzen eines Kindes, eines Armes und eines Kopfes 

Editor: Otto Scholderer's drawing, "Miezes Frühstück und Skizzen eines Kindes, eines Armes und eines Kopfes" which translates to "Mieze's Breakfast and Sketches of a Child, an Arm, and a Head", done with pencil and ink on paper, strikes me as a window into the artist’s playful experimentation. What do you make of this jumble of sketches? Curator: It feels like stumbling upon a forgotten dream, doesn't it? Sholderer’s sketching gives the impression of accessing fleeting images, almost as though he's coaxing characters out of thin air with the gentle strokes of his pencil. Look at the child's face; those large eyes seem to hint at the world being seen anew each day. It also has the intimacy of a sketchbook – what does it reveal, do you think, about the relationship between observation and imagination for an artist? Editor: It makes me wonder if these figures are pulled from real life or entirely invented. Maybe both? Curator: Exactly! And the medium - pencil and ink - amplifies that feeling of immediate, raw creation. There's no pressure for perfection, just pure, unadulterated exploration of form and feeling. I love that sense of play, it really puts the art in art. What kind of story do these sketches together create in your mind? Editor: Perhaps a child's breakfast moment observed then fragmented into pieces and mixed with pure fantasy? Like a memory being actively re-imagined? It almost inspires me to fill my own sketchbook with random moments from my life. Curator: Precisely! That's the magic, isn't it? It whispers, "Create freely, observe keenly, and never lose the thread of playful discovery”. It's reminded me that art doesn't need to shout to be heard, a soft whisper can resonate just as profoundly.
