Peter Jansen's exhibition ''In the Silence of Light'' at Jūrmala Museum

Peter Jansen's exhibition "In the Silence of Light" reveals the diversity of the artist's creative handwriting and techniques, presenting works created in the Netherlands and Latvia. Light, silence and nature are the leitmotifs of the exhibition. His interest in Symbolism and Art Nouveau is evident in his work, and Jansen explains that in Romantic landscapes he is interested in the strong emotionality - the subjective factor - of nature's representation. He also sees this emotionality in ancient Chinese and Japanese paintings. "I see it in the transformation of tree branches, waves and clouds into expressive, emotionally charged forms, while at the same time maintaining a meditative calm."
