The human body is a mystical energy-producing apparatus, a great mystery. The principle of duality has divided humans into two – male and female, with a tremendous erotic energy tension between them. The human body is like an antenna, receiving and emitting mysterious cosmic energy. The enigmatic Anne is primarily an antenna.
The stupa is a very old cosmic energy antenna, possibly older than humanity. It is believed to have appeared on Earth through aliens from the stars. If the stupa was the archetypal primordial form, then later church towers, minarets, and vertical temples evolved from it. It seems that the stupa is an extrahuman form, but is it really so? Vilen Künnapu addresses this question in his exhibition “Anne and Antennas”.
The exhibition includes the artist’s acrylic paintings from 2013-2024 and wood-metal installation energy towers from 2006-2013. We see the waves of divine energy flows – intertwining various aspects of human existence and forms that existed long before humans.
Vilen Künnapu (b. 1948) is an Estonian architect and artist. He graduated from the Estonian Academy of Arts as an architect (in 1971). Künnapu has participated in numerous art and architecture exhibitions both domestically and internationally. He has been participating in painting exhibitions since 2013.
