"I'm bound to say, you have found a very unique artistic language ... And your paintings [referring to the Moorish Rooms]
have their own magic atmosphere.“

Quote: Prof. Markus Lüpertz (March 2022)

​

Referring to the paintings "Horseman with Bow & Arrow", "El Duende" and "Tendencies I" from the series 'Earth, Grey & Structure'
Professor Lüpertz pointed out the "austerity and intensity" of the artworks.

Quote: Prof. Markus Lüpertz (Dec. 2019)

​

"The combination of a graphic eye and a painterly sensibility as well as a personal connection to her surroundings form the foundation for Isa Huss' creative expression. One of her main sources of inspiration, the Moorish, adds a distinctive and enriching dimension in various aspects: Including themes, color palettes and the special atmosphere of her compositions. The cultural influences in the subject matter and traces of weathering -modeled on nature- in the methodology. She creates these filigree structures on the canvas with numerous layers of paint. The working method shows her concern to capture the subject both in terms of content and sculpture. As you approach the artwork, the contrasts become apparent. At the same time, a harmonious result is revealed from a distance. Her works span the arc from the abstract to the concrete. In both artistic fields, she is concerned with capturing the individual energy during the act of painting. Whether she conveys calm & concentration with a fine brushstroke (as in the Moorish series) or expresses joy and strength with an energetic impulse (as in the "Berber Woman Jewels" paintings): The emotion behind it is revealed. What is special about Huss' art is this link of accuracy and expressiveness."

Prof. Dr. Waltraud Heindl, Universität Wien (Dec. 2023)
