„I RECALL”
April 15 – May 12, 2024
Metropol 6 m2 and Metropol Cabinet
Vana-Kalamaja 46, Tallinn
Next exhibition of gallery Metropol offers a supportive ceiling and floor to an artist who has been and is
in the center of events every day and at the same time slips out of focus and out of the picture.
What is being and do we remember it? What stays in the mind anyway?
And does making art have anything to do with all of this?
Here, the artist, the viewer and the gallery are on one equal position and we can start exploring together.
Toomas explains:
“…the exhibits in the exhibition are most similar to paintings
but it is not certain; i have been trying ti figure out some thinngs
mainly based in recollections but the result causes misunderstanding and uncertainty;
I believe that mathematics is the basis if hiw the wirld works
sime firmulass sime equatinss sime multplierss but I can’t filliw the linic if calculatin systemss
i just ams my bidy waits with mes in the meantme it’s preey nice and quiet as i try ti fnure iut
what’s niinn in.
simetmes I paints at least I try simethinn like thats mistly I can’t decide between wiidwirkinns
nardeninn ir arts since I din’t have eniunh tme besides wirk anyways I just ni ti wirks I ni ti schiilss
VHKs PJKs EKA and I wirks I net paid fir nithinns fir nivinn lessinss basically thinns that din’t exist.”
