Carmen Rieger was born in Romania and has been living in Austria for many years. A graduate of the Faculty of Industrial Design she has worked for many years as a furniture designer. Since 2018 she has experienced a whole new style inspired by the organic forms that fluids create in their movement. She called this new style "IRIS-Fluidism''.

For Carmen, her style IRIS-Fluidism is a tribute to the most fascinating, important and complex fluid on Earth, without which life cannot exist _ WATER.

Water is witness to the interconnectedness and interdependence of all living things. For the artist, water is not only the flow of life, but also an expression of spirituality. It is a sacred gift of inestimable value that we must take care. For she, water is an expression of love and interdependence of all life forms on the planet and in the Universe. Water unites all of creation into a whole of boundless beauty, diversity, and complexity. The water in our body reminds us of the beauty and the unique chance offered to be present in everyday life, to witness the magnificent spectacle of life.

Her artworks are composed of intricately organized, organic forms inspired by the movement of fluids.From the beginning, the artist chose to use the 7 colors of the rainbow and the shades obtained by combining them in all her works of art.

She wants to bring beauty, hope and love to life through her art.

IRIS-Fluidism is the most important moment in her artistic career. It represents the essence of who she is. It is all about fluidity—everything flows. Fluidity is inherent to the human being, present in both our biological composition and the structure of the society in which we are all immersed. It embodies a powerful communication system with its own language and infinite modes of expression. It reflects a reality that discovers and refines its nature in the liquid state of things. Humanity is immersed in it, carried away by the continuous flow of eternal becoming.

IRIS-Fluidism is the concept through which she expresses her artistic creed in works of art, inspired by the existence of a complex substance with extraordinary properties and qualities—WATER.

WATER is a unique and indestructible substance.

WATER is the basis of life, growth, and change.

WATER has the ability to regenerate continually.

WATER soothes and heals.

WATER shows understanding and sensitivity.

WATER is an accomplished artist.

WATER is the most important element on the planet, can be found in 70% of our Earth and in the same proportion in the bodies of humans, animals, and plants—sometimes even in a larger quantity.

She has chosen to use the seven colors of the rainbow, along with the shades resulting from their combinations, in all of her artworks.
