Liga Dubrovska - Observing the Noise

The exhibition artwork was created using the author’s observations of urban environmental noise. Everyday recordings from the streets were transformed into a peculiar music piece, played by purpose-built noise instruments. The solution in the form of music instruments is related to the heyday of the industrial revolution and the first half of the 20th century, when atonal, polytonal, polyrhythmic and discordant sounds gained self-value in the world of art and music. 

Līga Dubrovska is an artist who graduated in 2022 with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Audiovisual and Media Arts from the Department of Visual Communication at the Art Academy of Latvia. In her artworks, the artist seeks experimental ways to integrate contemporary technologies and scientific techniques. The artist values multi-layered nature of the content and the richness of associations and strives for a form of artwork that is able to evoke emotions and reflections in the viewer separated from the artist’s interpretation.
