Maarja Mäemets "_sabotöör / _saboteur"

The focus of the exhibition is the artist’s hidden antagonist, a deliberate thwarter who criticises, subverts and judges. This cunning inner speech undermines one’s footing and in the worst case prevents one from dreaming and enjoying life to the fullest.

Skillfully set up fine sensitive traps need excellent swimming skills. There is continuous movement through major and minor obstacles, dead ends, repetitions and ambiguity in the hopes of reaching to the other side.

Maarja Mäemets (born in 1991) is an artist and yogi. She reflects her own fragility and constantly morphing feelings, thoughts and circumstances in her work. She believes there are no standstills, only constant motion in which there is a high chance to lose oneself. Mäemets has a BA (2015) and MA degree (2018) in glass art from the Estonian Academy of Arts. She creates mostly site-specific installations and prefers to work across media.
