In this project Ieva Viese-Vigula and Gints Virgilijs Tilks are developing the topics of hopes, fears and beliefs that become self fulfilling prophecies. They are exploring their matter from the perspective of observing and being observed as their departure point. Distorted visions in forms of misunderstandings and superstitions. Unable to overcome the physical boundaries of the human eye, the sight, the perception.
Gints Virgiljs Tilks and Ieva Viese-Vigula are two of the five members of young artist-curated DOM gallery and study in parallel courses of the Audiovisual department of Latvian Art academy.
Ieva Viese-Vigula (1987) researches the subjects of her interest in an interdisciplinary manner – as a poet, critic and from the perspective of visual arts. Her focus is the shared concepts that form into words or images and the superstitions, misconceptions and misleading expectations that are part of most forms.
Gints Virgilis Tilks (1997) uses sculptural elements, photographic imagery and digital composition to create spatially diffused narratives. He has participated in Augmented reality group show As if lost exploring the possibilities of digital art to bypass the rules of gravity.
