 Vera Möller zebron 2005 oil on canvas 92 x 76 cm | Möller's inventory of painted forms is cast in different hues with shimmering backgrounds. Surrounded by dappled aqueous fluids, these delicate microorganisms hover in amorphous space: a sense of movement and suspension is conveyed. Bereft of context, Möller's diminutive specimens appear as marine creatures swamped by a hallucinatory and intriguing underworld. Philipinum, with its dappled, camouflage background is like a coral formation from the Great Barrier Reef whereas Millilium is adrift in a lurid haze. In the surrealist manner of combining unlikely elements and the scientific enterprise of naming species, titles add both absurd humour and mystery to Möller's suite of prototypes."
