This summer I had the pleasure to meet a great Austrian artist and a wonderful person. Ingrid Pröller has strong relations with Crete and was kind enough to entrust me with the photo shoot of her last exhibition that took place at a very small village in the south of the island.
It was practically an installation in an olive grove where she was living and working the past months and all the artworks were conceived and executed right there taking inspiration from the Cretan scenery. It was mostly interesting to see my homeland through the eyes of a foreigner artist and a very keen observer both for the beauty and the ugliness, the natural and the man made, the life and death.
If you are interested in her work you can visit her site http://www.proeller.at to read more in her own words and see all the pictures from this one as well as all her previous work. In this post I would like to share my subjective point of view from the exhibition as I saw it like a visitor and a photographer. I hope you'll enjoy it as much as I did!
I hope that my friend @sjarvie5 won't get upset for "borrowing" the title of her own art series but somehow it sounded like a perfect fit for today's post!
Many thanks to @c0ff33a for his #SublimeSunday and @ace108 for his #beautifulsunday initiatives!

Thank you very much Katerina :)
Stefanos I love that you use that name! I think it would be awesome to have a community with that name that people did art talk posts! I just wasn't sure how strong the art community was here on Hive. Great looks at Ingrid's work. Thanks for introducing her to us!
Thank you Sara! The truth is that I was wondering in what community should I share this post. Charming idea :)
Stefanos, can I use a picture from this post to make my intro post for the Art Talk community?
Yes, of course!
Great, thanks!
It's great to see exhibits of the works in the open air.
Thank you for stopping by @ace108 :)
You're welcome
