Exhibition's curator Artis Ostups has chosen metonymy as the conceptual core. Metonymy in language is a transference of similarity between two concepts. In art, metonymy is revealed as a visual detail that is able to connect different contexts and therefore expands the virtual space of the work. Metonymic works also transform the gallery - it becomes as vast as the visitor's imagination. The artists in the exhibition use metonymy to create transitions between the working materials and a wider semantic field that holds both literary and personal experience.
