I am an Austrian with many artistic skills, who did once a "normal job", but was never happy with it. I did that "normal job" for a while, because I made my parents happy with it.

I also was often working either in 2 jobs, or had a job and went to evening school and later on to a college, because secretly I was planing to leave the "normal job" behind one day. Yes, I took longer and I am now with 44 years still a "new-comer" in art (it is hard to get in, when you do not have anyone on that field), but I still do not give up so fast and well next week my first solo-exhibition will start. Only for a month, but it is better than nothing. Yes, as I said, I have more artistic skills, such as drawing (which I do since I am 2,5 years), dancing (which I do since I am 5), acting (did something like that also with about 5, but also a bit voice over with about 10) painting (in which I educated myself) take photographs (bought my first camera with 19) and since 2021 I have a BA (hons) in digital film production. (well was not the best time to start, with the lock downs, so one reason more, why I did not win already an award.)

A dark Past by GruberA

Leaving in the Republic of Ireland, I created a story which involves the Magdalene Laundries, which existed in Northern and in the Republic of Ireland. I set the story in the year 1996, so no cell phone etc. existed, as we know it today. It is hardly mentioned what happened at the crime scene, ore what stood in the diary. All persons are fictional, so made up by myself. I do not know, if a similar case once happened, but I think it did not, so also that crime is made up.

What is not fictunal is, that the last Laundry did close in 1996 in Dublin. Also some other things which are mentioned, like, when another Laundry was closed, or how they could find some mass graves can be read at the internet, although I did not go too much into details, so it does not get too terrible for reading it. Yes it is a sad ending, but I also tried there to be as positive as possible. I have no clue, what I am allowed to write in todays world, but I tried to write so nice as I could. To be honest, every real news, for all when war is involved are more cruel, than what I wrote, still you will realise it is a crime story. I know, that normally you write a summery of the story, but I wanted to make clear, that this is not a true story, that only some places existed in reality, but none of the persons mentioned or the story itself happened in that way. The one or other thing I have from news-article of BBC and Co.
