Description
Curtain opens. A conscious decision meets irrational unknown. A gaze crosses the threshold of the screen. One can smell the humid in the air and it turns on another code of watching and seeing. Micro-cosmos of the courtyards with wooden houses, faded patina of a paint, wet trunks existing on themselves - all together come in a common order in between the earth and the sky. A wave from the past breaks up in the sea of present. Water ripples as a wood section. Things put in a new order despite they have had one before. ------------ New Stories Written With Wood On Water - is a cycle of new works created in 2015, fruited practicing long walks in a Baltic Sea hometown and studio processes of painting and sewing. The body of work contains etudes of various sizes, where painted layers overlap with sewed stitches, also several cross-embroidered canvases of bigger scale are displayed. Visual language is developed by textures and details - kinds of site specific signs and artifacts. Painting, pouring, washing, engraving is used to affect the canvas. There are some golds. The canvas covered by various kinds of dispersion is partly stitched, so a texture with optic illusion enters. Viewing point and the light makes sense when observing, it intensifies the image. The cycle is new thematically. Architectural detail of wooden joint dominates here, it constructs the image. Also slight reflection towards the works of Ingas' previous works is visible. One of these is the canvas with the rasterized sea image: picture of former stitched linear wave was used to built a new pattern. Several works depict red theater curtain, it exposes authors' movie goer position to watch and treat surroundings. As well it's kind of jump to a previous creative work with an intention to join perspectives of past and future.
