Exhibition – What is important?
June 27, 2022
SC “Galerija Centrs” on the 3rd floor 13/06 – 10/10/2022
What is important, matters is something that has great value, strong influence; something that is essential, decisive. Would it be basic human needs, values, freedoms? For some friendships, relationships, time and memories? Experiences or people left behind, or goals and people encountered? In these difficult times, we evaluate what is given to us, what is important and what is not.
The artists in the group’s exhibition explore the important and important topics. The artist Kristiāna Dimitere works in different forms of expression: sculptures, paintings, drawings, scenography. The images, which can be described as Latvian pop art, are vivid and talk fabulously to the viewer. Dimitere’s works of art are associative and explore topics close to and important to the artist: for example, the moment before happiness is achieved. The artist says that “you can” touch the ground “of a sense of happiness and it’s quite shallow.”
In her paintings, Laura Kaktina explores man’s relationship with nature and the universe, its proportional insignificance. However, this time small is not insignificant, on the contrary! Together, every detail is valuable as a whole.
It is important for the painter Erik Caune to paint as he saw it. He works in a traditional technique, mixing it with modern expression and the “mimes” of the social networking era, thus uniting the two worlds.
Reinis Liepa also likes to contrast illustration, urban art forms with academism and realism. The images in the works come to life and reflect the man’s fantasies: it is important for the artist to formulate his sexuality.
It is important for Emma Sofia to know herself, her core values, not to lose what is important. In her work, she explores her inner world, body and emotions.
In the series of paintings “Melancholy” Sandra Strēle focuses on creating closed, alienated, sometimes lonely, life-affirming places, conjuring up their architecture and fictional everyday scenes, offering the viewer the role of an observer. It is the loneliness and everyday life in the paintings that provokes a melancholy mood, encouraging the viewer to look for logical, visual elements in the paintings that confirm the melancholy.
What is important for each artist is their own, but together it is important for us to express ourselves freely, to shape our world and life, to look for new expressions and creative inspirations, and to have a conversation with the viewer where the viewer is now.
Butterman – Santa Matule, Simona Veilande, Renāte Vītola, Ineta Urtāne.
