Ornamental stubbornness

2014

Exhibition ‘Ornamental’ in Tallinn Art Hall, 2014. Kinetic object, metal, welding. Multidimensionality of the world, mental maze of connections, ornamental sequence of recurrences. Again and again indigenous folklore rises from the ashes like a tilting doll. Its patterns or perhaps letters emerge to human mind from the unspeakable depths and the vast expanses of space regardless of miscellaneous wars, genocide, and self-inflicted fashion of communities. Those letters draw people back to the forest, sanctuaries, to restoring grandparents’ farmsteads, to archives and libraries seeking for old folklore texts.

Train Beat

2012

International art train ‘Cosmic Underground’ on the way from Tallinn to Guimaraes, 2012 Video, sound, and light installation: Elo Liiv Concept: Elo Liiv, Eva Tallo Dream of freedom is like a cosmic underground from one reality to another.

A giant chair together with the spiral, gateway, and sound stood on the top of the mountain. The mountain symbolizing the

The Connection

2012

Tallinn Art Hall, Tallinn, 2012. Interactive light installation. Co-authors: Eva Tallo, Priit Tiimus. Interactive light art project connects visitors of the exhibition virtually with the artists’ sub-consciousness and inner world. This occurs through the help of line, line tracking, and imitation; it places the author on the one side of the screen/the sheet and the viewer/the imitator on the other. There takes place the graphic transmission from the artist to viewer. They are different yet connected; one is the initiator the other the imitator… however they are equal in front of the blank sheet of paper; equal before the
