膾riks 础辫补募补颈蝉: Mailbox No.12
Solo exhibition 鈥淢ailbox No. 12鈥 by 膾riks 础辫补募补颈蝉 invites the audience to a gathering of the painter鈥檚 latest works in the candid space of the 427 gallery. At the artist鈥檚 grand exhibition, which offered an overview of his work to date at the Latvian National Art Museum in early 2020, visitors could enter the painting series 鈥淢emory Object鈥, in which 础辫补募补颈蝉 created image models, trying to understand the meanings of autobiographical characters 鈥 the paintings functioned as maps of the psyche, in which the artist鈥檚 process of explorations was absorbed. In the 鈥淢emory Object鈥 paintings, 础辫补募补颈蝉 discovered that the character as an object of memory is a construction that can be abstracted pictorially, softening the meanings of the experiences attached to the characters.
鈥淧ostcard No. 12鈥 offers opportunities for new revelations of how to treat memory objects after their meanings have been critically interrogated, moving from the relativization of characters to an experience in which memory objects are transformed through their states of awareness. In the series, the family characters (mom, dad and sister) are in a dynamic relationship that opens up the possibility of new interactions and an open field for connections and additions of experiences.
