"Night Sky Setting the Scene"

Haapsalu City gallery, Haapsalu, 2022

The exhibition consists of works carried by late-night lingering thoughts and meandering dreamlike chats. These reflections can be tiring, intertwined with fears, and charged with emotions. But in a way, they are familiar as they kindle time and again once darkness falls.

What keeps you up at night? Does the night exaggerate or reveal instead?

Kas sa magad?
Jalutama tahad minna?

Imelik vahepeal olemise tunne on
aastaajad vahelduvad
muutust on õhus tunda
alles oli suvi, augustikuu
viimane palavus
koerad lõõtsutasid
autod ja ritsikad
teise hääle madal
sumisev vibratsioon
öine taevas ja ufod

It seems familiar
maybe you've felt it before
it brings comfort
like a heavy blanket
warm from day's heat
laid on your tired body
you feel protected

Anything can happen
or maybe it's just a mood
a feeling in the bones
the night sky setting the scene
but it could be the time
of transformation

never too late to reinvent
