BEDLAM MAGAZINE - A Great Dane by Jonathan Jerald. March 17, 2009                                    Birgitte Moos is a native Dane but she splits her time between Copenhagen and Los Angeles and so her works reflect urban landscapes that transcend continental divides.  Her imagery has evolved from the use of early European  mythological symbols and figures into dark, abstract, almost architectonic works that suggest urban landscapes that trap and channel human figures through an uneasy labyrinth.                                                                                                 Moos describes her approach to painting as an exploration of her personal experience and that of her generation by adapting methods from the memory palace technoique of recall, "the method of loci, or 'ars memoriae' (art of memory)." The woven layers in each individual painting are  narratives representing separate visions of remembrance. "Symbolically,"                          Moos explains, a brain scattered full of information: A perverse peep into the creative and complex atmosphere inside the memory of a mind palace."                                                                                            The images she produces are often reminiscent of the darker panels of graphic novels in which the inhabitants are trapped in a twilight metropolis, divided by walls of their own making.                               New Works by Birgitte Moos at Edgar Varela Fine Arts (EVFA) Gallery, Downtown LA.
