Barbara Gaile ''AQUA. WATER'' exhibition at Art Station Dubulti
- 14.June - 6.October
- Art Station Dubulti
- Zigfrīda Meierovica prospekts 3
Aquatic lyricism and politics in Barbara Gaile’s solo exhibition AQUA.WATER
Barbara Gaile’s intentions show both modesty and ambition. The artist’s choice to paint and draw nothing but fragments of aquatic surfaces casts her latest exhibition in the light of disciplined serialism, where every subsequent image is a surprise in terms of nuance and a repetition in the larger scheme of things which has a single focus – water.
The water’s imagery is straightforward, so Gaile’s latest output can be called aesthetic landscape. Gaile treats water as a physical and biological matter that yields to idealisation and sets a certain mood. She uses a conceptual approach where water has become (if I may call it so) a screen reflecting the sky, the time of day and its state of light, the wind and an invisible realm of aquatic flora and fauna that gives the water its colour and plasticity. Water and all its atoms become a scenic image. At the same time, every scene is a moment in the viewer’s consciousness.
All the exhibits are new and never displayed before.
Entry: free.
