About
Through my art, I delve into the intricate connections between women's archetypal roles and their bond with nature. By portraying women in various states of integration with their homes, I reveal how external forces profoundly shape our inner worlds.
Through the prism of globalization, wars, migration, pandemics, and personal challenges, I aim to depict the rich dimensions of these themes. Art, to me is a meditative form of communication. As an introverted artist, I express myself through visual language, offering glimpses into the unspoken depths of emotions, thoughts, and experiences.
I strive to evoke empathy and understanding by exploring the intersection of global events and personal stories. Through symbolism, surreal elements, and deliberate composition, I create visual narratives that blur reality and imagination. By playing with statics and dynamics, bold contrasts, and the integration of private and public spheres, I aim to illuminate the resilient spirit that resides within each of us.
In my art, life is depicted as an ongoing process, where beauty emerges from our shared humanity.
I am grateful for the opportunities I have had to share my work with art lovers around the world, and I am excited to see where my artistic journey will take me in the future.
My pieces have found homes in private collections globally, as well as in prestigious art centers like the Daugavpils Mark Rothko Art Centre, Ogre Museum, and Ventspils Museum. I am honored to be a part of the Union of Latvian Artists and the Graphics Chamber of Riga.
