Gallery Late – "Field of Unheard Voices" group exhibition

The exhibition “Field of Unheard Voices” is an interdisciplinary contemporary art project that brings together professional artists whose practices include visual art and embodied practices, such as performance. The project explores the impact of collective memory, places and experiences on the formation of identity in the context of contemporary Latvian culture.  At the center of the project is the question of how memory exists beyond direct experience and how it continues to influence the body, material, and space. The exhibition examines memory as a process that moves from the personal to the collective and manifests not as a linear narrative, but as a field of sensations and embodied experience.  The exhibition features a variety of media and materials – clay, textiles, ceramics, bodily movement, space and sound. These elements function as carriers of memory, inside of which time, touch, and traces of human presence accumulate. The project is realized as an interdisciplinary process in which no single artistic discipline is subordinated to another.

Artists: Katerina Geiduka, Egija Grīnfelde, Ojun Batbajana, Liene Mackus, Mailo Mēness, Maria Gvardeitseva
