Description
Human-crafted. AI-refined.

This minimalist artwork features a simple, smooth white stone or pebble, delicately wrapped in an intricate web of golden threads or strings. The composition emphasizes the contrast between the organic, natural form of the stone and the meticulously crafted, geometric pattern of the golden threads. The use of a limited color palette of white and gold creates a sense of elegance and refined simplicity. The artist seems to explore the interplay between the natural and the artificial, as well as the tension between the rigid and the fluid. The overall effect is a visually striking and thought-provoking piece that invites the viewer to contemplate the relationship between material, form, and artistic expression. ...

Through installations and assemblages made from ceramics, stone, metal, fabrics and found objects, Ieva Kraule-Kūna explores the aftermath of the fall of the Soviet Union in the post-Soviet Baltics, Soviet architecture, the essence of an artistic act and fetishism. Her sculptural work is usually accompanied by absurdist short stories that follow the adventures of fictional characters, intertwined with distorted historical facts. Kraule-Kūna’s practice is informed by her experiences and memories of growing up in the 1990s Rīga, times defined by confusion, both economic, cultural and interpersonal. Relating that time to today, the artist makes observations about the state of the global art world and the impact of art-making on societies. With artist Elīna Vītola, Kraule-Kūna runs the Artist Crisis Centre, a space of comfort and solidarity that provides a shelter for unwanted art and a help call centre. Merging imagined absurdity with real-life individual and cultural trauma, Kraule-Kūna’s works are eloquent narrators of both fiction and fact, past and present. ...
