Laura Ozola’s Exhibition “Sea of Bananas” | Rainis and Aspazija’s Summer House

The exhibition offers an ironic and multi-layered perspective on an everyday object—the banana—which, in the artist’s works, transforms into a visually rich, symbol-laden landscape. The main exhibition features her latest works, in which the artist continues her characteristic layering of images and symbols.

Alongside the banana motif, other symbols of visual culture also appear—shoes, fabric patterns, references to icons of modernism, pop culture figures, and human figures. These elements create spaces that are at times slightly absurd and ironic, where personal experience intertwines with collective cultural symbols.
