About this artwork
Memory is not a static archive, but a living echo of what was – distorted, embellished, buried. In this painting, memory seems like an eruption of inner worlds: the figure's head, half-hidden, is flooded with eruptive colors. Black represents the repressed, the unspeakable, while the blood red suggests emerging emotions – pain, passion, trauma.
The face remains calm—a contrast to the chaotic world that erupts from within. Memory here is not just… a retrospective, but a creation: It shapes who we are. The blend of lines, colors, and surfaces reveals that memory is never objective—it is a work of art created by our consciousness.
The image asks: Who would we be without what we remember – and who would we be without what we forget?
I am memory—not as it was, but as I feel it. Light and shadow, pain and radiance mingle within me.

Joachim Bergauer is an internationally acclaimed photographer with a multifaceted, sophisticated style that straddles contemporary art and fashion photography. A surrealist visionary with classical training in fine art, he understands how to merge photography and graphic design into unique works. His minimalist color and black-and-white compositions are reminiscent of the great art movements of the 20th century, influenced by Fauvism, Conceptual Art, and Minimalism. Bergauer experiments with new aesthetic concepts, explores boundaries, and creates works of great inner power. Color and form become carriers of emotion and meaning—graphically clear, metaphorically condensed, stylistically pointed. His visual language combines avant-garde approaches with harmoniously balanced compositions. With over 100 international awards—including "Photographer of the Year" (Japan)—Joachim Bergauer is one of Europe's leading photographers.
