In: artist. Critical Lexicon of Contemporary Art , issue 82 / issue 11, Munich 2008, p. 11.</ref>
Moroder's interest in non-European cultures led him on to study trips to [[Mexico]] and [[Guatemala]] in 1987, as well as to [[Egypt]] in 1994, and to [[Sulawesi]] and [[Java]] in 1996. In 2001 Moroder resigned from his job and decided to live drawing and modelling at the State Vocational School for Sculpture in Ortisei.<ref>Claudia Guderian: Palm fruit eyes and dolomite chalk.

Walter Moroder is well versed in drawing and large-format woodcuts, his artistic motive is sculptural and sculptural and results from experiences of inadequacy with the south tyrolenian sculptural tradition. The artist mainly uses wood, [[plaster]] and also casts in bronze.
[[File:Walter Moroder, Sogni lontani. 2003.jpg|thumb|Sogni Lontani , 2003, Swiss stone pine, acrylic, glass eyes, 176 cm]]
One of Moroder's core subjects is the human figure; predominantly female figures and female bodies. Moroder represents his subjects standing in a waiting posture with slim proportions without any recognizable relationship to the real space - except for the floor - and mostly without a pedestal or elevation.<ref>Annette Reich: Having body and being body. In: Walter Moroder. Nzaul d'auter. Somewhere else. Museum Pfalzgalerie Kaiserslautern 2017, p. 9 f.</ref>
In the design of the details such as clothing, hands, feet, mouth or throat encrypted gestures and archaic images similar to the Greek, Egyptian and Asian influences in conjunction with elements of a non-everyday life-world can be observed.<ref>Peter Weiermair, in: Walter Moroder , Galerie Appel, Frankfurt am Main 2003, p. 6.</ref> Moroder represents well known opposites between visible and invisible, male and female, concealment and nudity, body and mind, feeling and psyche.<ref>Arnold Stadler: Grazie. Unexpected present. Unexpected standing there. In: Andrea Firmenich (ed.): Walter Moroder - Alberto Giacometti. Secret world. Altana Kulturstiftung, Bad Homburg / Wienand Verlag Cologne 2008, p. 135.</ref>
The main theme in these works often revolves around experiences of ambivalence such as grace and grace, around androgynous identities, around the aura and presence of the absent, around the experience of death and fascination.<ref>Hans-Joachim Müller: Walter Moroder. In: artist. Critical Lexicon of Contemporary Art , issue 82 / issue 11, Munich 2008, p. 6.</ref>
[[File:Walter Moroder, Cujida. 2015.jpg|thumb|Cujida , 2015, Swiss stone pine, acrylic, cord, bells, 164 cm]]
When working in the studio, Moroder generally avoids a living model when looking for forms and avoids any realism and narrative content.<ref> Hans-Peter Riese, in: Andrea Firmenich (Ed.): Walter Moroder - Alberto Giacometti. Secret world. Altana Kulturstiftung, Bad Homburg / Wienand Verlag Cologne 2008, p. 12 ff.</ref> A number of individual works illustrate the disappearance of the human figure or they turn out to be precarious existences in sewn, perforated, segmented bodies or torsos.<ref>Annette Reich: Having body and being body. In: Walter Moroder. Nzaul d'auter. Somewhere else. Museum Pfalzgalerie Kaiserslautern 2017, p. 14 f.</ref>
