Anna Heinrihsone "My peace is dead"


“Roots are unusual formations. They are like the end and the beginning at the same time. I am grateful to them for so many blessed moments of enlightenment, thus linking them to a certain kind of worship.

The exhibited works erase boundaries between the visual on a plane and the spatial, creating a bizarre feeling of a church, where the naive and the typical turn into the mysterious, but the search for truth gets lost in the root of allure of emotional experiences,” Anna Heinrihsone.

 

Anna Heinrihsone has graduated from the Department of Stage Design of the Art Academy of Latvia (1996). Since 1995 she has created stage designs and costumes for more than 80 theatre plays (The New Riga Theatre, Valmiera Drama Theatre, The Latvian National Opera and Ballet, Tartu Vannemuine Theatre, MHAT (Moscow), Novosibirsk State Academic Opera and Ballet Theatre).
Anna Heinrihsone has also organized 7 solo exhibitions and participated in more than 20 painting and stage design exhibitions in Latvia and abroad.
Her works are in public collections - Latvian National Museum of Art (Riga, Latvia), Swedbank Contemporary Art Collection (Riga, Latvia), KUMU (Tallinn, Estonia).
