About
Born in Riga, Latvia
1973
"...That is all about an exploration. Lines are the axis or pivot of the work. Normally I start with small graphite pencil doodles on paper. In fact that’s the way the stories begin, because the way in which I draw the first strokes inspires to the next stroke and after a while the idea emerged. The form of the human figure became the starting point for the narratives of the stories in my drawing. Sometimes the drawing ends as a picture of something, and other times it starts as picture about something. The whole idea is to say things visually. It is clear for me that to draw is the same thing as to seek - and so maybe also to seek answers to the big and little questions in life. After all love is the creative force here in life. Art is created through love. Artist seeks the truth in order to find freedom. ... "
