Event description
The installation exhibition features recent sculptural compositions that feature abstracted, yet still graspable human figures, dynamically weaving through space. By creating objects of large scale and complexity, the artist expands the material and conceptual flexibility of ceramics as a genre. The artist is sensitive to a world in crisis and shaken by various challenges, scanning the global problems of mankind, considering the impact of pandemics and the effects of war on the individual. The feelings of anxiety, instability, helplessness and meaninglessness that we all experience encourage us to turn to human nature, to listen to our inner states, to capture the experience of moments. As a ceramicist, she dreamt of going to China, the country of porcelain, which has already closed its doors due to the restrictions caused by conflicts. The exhibition therefore also presents (un)realised ideas for an international symposium, which, like an unfulfilled wish, are locked in the present. The Arka Gallery (Aušros vartų g. 7, Vilnius) will be open until 1 June.
