Artist talk in the exhibition "DOLLHELL", artist Jānis Mitrēvics and curator Inga Šteimane.

‘A Doll. A hellish doll. A doll hell. We usually play with dolls. The games may differ, but the doll is an extraordinarily accommodating model,’ says Jānis Mitrēvics. In Mitrēvics’ work, the world flashes past as a kaleidoscope of events and regulations, endlessly shaken by time into ever-new configurations. The painterly language is expansive and gestural, built on soft fields and classical colour relationships, yet nervous in its contrasts of darkness and light – dazzling, destabilising, refusing to settle.
