Kim? Contemporary Art Centre, in collaboration with Kogo Gallery, presents Krista Dzudzilo\u2019s first personal exhibition in Estonia. Entitled <\/span>all the possibilities that existed<\/span><\/i>, the exhibition encompasses a series of new charcoal drawings, as well as a video work and a group of objects that strive to show how to turn observation into awareness. What does it mean to tilt sideways and find another axis \u2013 does that yield a new stability? How can you find movement in what is static? How can you change your perspective so that it comprises a new known and the known in what is new? Here are 19 attempts at tilting stability.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The artist\u2019s notes made in preparation for the exhibition reveal the impulses behind the works and how their message developed:<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u2018everything you say is true\u2019<\/span> is a series of charcoal drawings located halfway between sculpture and painting. The drawings were produced by touching the surface of the canvas countless times: the charcoal was caressed into a ground of ashes until the work was covered by dense layers that produce a material depth. There is a long tradition of academic drawing that is layered with conceptual and aesthetical meanings. It opens up the opportunity to comment on the work in the context of contemporary art in the form of a conversation with history and the tradition of drawing. I am interested in different contradictions and the tension that arises between polar opposites. The sterile background is set against a material as dirty as charcoal. The drawings\u2019 sharp edges confront the technical unpredictability of charcoal. The brittle nature of charcoal resembles the surface of a rock, which is full of light. A drawing is usually thought of as something of a modest size, but a larger format gives it the status of a more monumental art form. Yet, at the same time, owing to the technical specifics, it does not lose its fineness or level of detail.<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The series of drawings<\/span><\/i>, \u2018let your words be mine<\/span>\u2019, like everything else, came into being a long time before appearing in my consciousness as a clear or unclear idea. In my case, I almost always take a white surface as a beginning. I want to call it empty since there is nothing there. I am fascinated by how an image can be constructed so that, in relation to the drawing, the sheet becomes a space or is given the opportunity to be called a color. I pay particular attention to the places where the emptiness, or whiteness, enters uninvited, unexpected, thus marking a rupture. This sheds light on the nature of being, inviting reflection on what <\/span><\/i>is<\/i> and what <\/i>is not<\/i>, that which can be seen, and that which is seemingly covered up \u2013 although, in truth, it has not been uncovered. I would like my works to hide more than they reveal. I want to open up the silence.<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

In a similar tenor, I think about the video \u2018<\/i>this is where she is\u2019\u2014<\/span>about rushing forward while staying in the same place. Forward from the opposite perspective is backward, but what happens when two entities continue moving, each towards its own forward? Two enormous forces rushing in opposite directions, canceling each other? Will my gaze follow one of them? Will I see both and experience movement as inertia that takes me nowhere? The mirror of water mirrors itself in the mirrored image.<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The installation \u2018<\/span><\/i>all the possibilities that existed<\/span>\u2019 is a sonic unit comprising metronomes and pencils, which help to <\/span><\/i>rein in<\/i><\/b> time through conscious action. If greater precision \u2013 greater structure \u2013 is needed, can it be solved by increasing the number of time-measuring devices? One rhythm overlaps with others and produces the noise of the sea. This object of academic learning becomes a musical instrument which demonstrates, in quintet, the simultaneity of everything and, rather than keeping the rhythm, suggests stopping. The pencils quiver, drawing signs in the air. Back and forth, each in a somewhat different rhythm. They streak the air in order to achieve nothing at all.<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

Krista Dzudzilo (1989) <\/b>is a visual artist working in a variety of media on a range of scales \u2013 from small, meticulously made drawings to large-scale stage designs for collaborations in theatre and opera. In her visual art projects, Krista employs scenography, for example, as an extensive dramaturgy of space and active collaboration with the viewer, while in theatre, the space and costumes have a deeply symbolic meaning, often becoming independent works of art. Krista has held six personal exhibitions and taken part in numerous group exhibitions in Latvia and abroad. She has earned recognition for her works at both local and international levels, including an award for the best concept at the Prague Quadrennial of Performance Design and Space 2019, the Latvian National Theatre Award (twice), the National Design Award of Latvia 2019, and others. She has been twice nominated \u2013 in 2015 and 2021 \u2013 for the Latvian contemporary visual arts award: the Purv\u012btis Prize. Krista\u2019s works are held in the collections of the Latvian Museum of Contemporary Art and the Latvian National Museum of Art, as well as in private collections.<\/span><\/p>\n
