Varbūt palikušas 35 vasaras / MAYBE 35 SUMMERS LEFT



Es domāju par atbildību, rīcību un laiku. Darbs sastāv no YouTube video, fotoatēliem un instalācijām.
 Tika pētītas dažādas iespējamo soļu iespējas, vēsture, vide, cilvēki, dokumentētas liecības un šis process tika ievietots eksistenciālas tematikas kontekstā – kā entropija, apokalipse. Plāna ietinamā papīra formas ieguva vienu no 5 krāsām un intuitīvi iegūla performancēs vai instalācijās. 
Šis darbu kopums kalpoja arī kā maģistra darbs Latvijas Mākslas akadēmijā 2020.gadā.

I'm thinking about responsibility, action and time. This body of work incorporates YouTube videos, photos and installations. Various potential steps, history, environment, people, documented testimonies were studied, and this process was placed in the context of existential themes - such as entropy and apocalypse. The thin wrapping paper shapes got one of 5 colors and intuitively blended into performance or installations.
It was presented as the final work of MA studies at the Art Academy of Latvia.

Responsibility for the resources entrusted to me. To be a resident; the skins we put on and take off, prostheses and extensions, entropy, mobile phone, cyborgs, mission, my profile, important paper, home issue, apocalypse. I can research the past in YouTube video documentations. 

The format of the work corresponds the content, the virtual way of presenting the MA work this year in the time of pandemic. 
The trip to the Royal Academy Schools interview in London I consider to be a performative part of the work. The interview was successful.

The work is divided into 2 stages: 
Phase 1 works travelled with me to the interview in London; 
Phase 2 works were made after the announced emergency situation in the country. 

"Maybe 35 Summers Left" is a tribute to all the unseen colours that are testified about in the depths of YouTube.








Phase 1 works just after my interview in London.


Back in Riga.
