Exhibition "Exodus"
- 15.June - 17.September
- Art Station "Dubulti"
- Z.Meierovica prospekts 4
Baibas Osīte's personal exhibition "Exodus" is a part of the 7th Riga International Textile and Fiber Art Triennale QUO VADIS?, 16.06. - 17.09.2023, satellite event, as well as one of the exhibitions in the 4th international sea-themed art biennial "Marina 2023" 07.07. - 03.09.2023.
The mark of recognition of Baibas Osīte is the paintings made of pieces of wood washed out of the sea - landscape and abstract, both archaic and modern ecological. The personal exhibition "Exodus" was created in a similar synthesis - the historical and the philosophically abstract are together, just like the experienced, felt and imagined. The form of Baibas Osīte's works is structured by repetition. They are elements that line up or crowd one another like a purposeful stream of thoughts: each one is shaped, colored or polished a little differently. The exhibition features new works in felting and silk printing techniques, experimental objects, as well as stick classics and miniatures exhibited for the first time in Latvia, which combine ready-made and embroidery.
Baibas Osīte's personal exhibition "Exodus" takes place in the exhibition program of the Art Station "Dubulti" from June 15 to September 17 with the financial support of the Jūrmala City Council and the State Culture Capital Fund. Inga Šteimane, manager of the art station "Dubulti" and curator of the exhibition.
Art station "Dubulti" is open every day from 9 to 17.30 Free entrance.
