Loading tagged images from folder based on search input

Hey nice people… =)
I´m looking for an approach to load images from a folder (that I got to work so far) based on a search input in a textfield the user can make.
The images will be named or meta tagged with several words and now I want to filter and show only the ones corresponding to the users search…
Any ideas (or magic modules/libraries) how to do this?

Thanks in advance and many greetings from Venice,
Lorenz

wow… could it be that easily the “mask pin” is the solution to my problem?
Sorry for bothering :D
