The current works of Luis Zimmermann emerge from a complex layering of transfer prints on silkscreen mesh, combined with painting and both personal and found photographs, superimposed on top of each other. This translucent layering creates a unique sense of depth, where the different levels interact with one another. A textile theme, already present in classical canvas painting, is revisited through a thin frame support with a fabric edge. The transparency of the material reveals the underlying layers, adding an extra dimension to the work and intensifying the idea of layering and overlaying.

Deliberate cuts and cut-outs are used to integrate printed fabric fragments into the composition, aligning with the technique of "shaped canvas." In doing so, lower layers are exposed, while simultaneously new, collage-like reference systems are created. These image fragments and layers are not only visual elements but also symbolic representations of individual and collective experiences, particularly in relation to generational influences and traumas. The extensions of lines, surfaces, body parts, or color traces do not follow a fixed thematic structure but instead preserve the internal organization of the image layers, creating a dynamic of irritation and surprise. The viewer is invited to discover the works and interpret the different layers as metaphors for the complexity of identity and memory.

The question of how personalities are formed and the interactions between different generations is explored in these works. The layering of various materials and visual elements reflects the blending of individual experiences and collective traumas passed down through generations. The works reflect the multilayered nature of memory, with disruptions, gaps, and omissions intentionally employed to avoid a coherent narrative. These imperfections and breaks are not only artistic devices but also metaphorical representations of the fragmentation of experiences and identity. The incomplete composition and image jumps leave room for focus irritations, opening the viewer to new perspectives on the theme of intergenerational trauma and its impact on individual and collective identities. These works aim to foster the viewer's engagement with these themes and make visible the different, often hidden layers of human experiences and memories.
