Ieva Stalšene ^{Noor kunstnik}

Kunstniku päritolumaa: Läti

Continuous symbiosis between the incomprehensible, the spiritual and the humanly brutal is present in the creative cloud of Ieva Stalšene. The topics covered by the artworks might repulse a more conservative audience, but she is not afraid to provoke a stranger’s shame. The story she tells is about spiritual experiences in a human world where yin is not detachable from yang. Her artistic expression is based in the art of scenography outside the theatre stage and concentrate on the relationship between the space, the object and the spectator.
