The latest exhibition title from the artist Māris Čačka is yet another enigmatic wordplay. Fitting the artist’s playful style like the proverbial hand in a glove, it lends his latest output a certain semantic direction while leaving ample room for individual interpretation by an open-minded viewer.
As an alternative, the title may have been conceived as an allusion to the famous Latin parenthesis inter alia (incidentally, among other things). This reading adds another layer of intrigue and leads the viewer down another path of speculation and reflection on what the author meant to say and what associative train of thought his work suggests.
In his dynamic daily life, among so many other things, the artist seeks and values meaningful experiences of encounter with and being among others. He thrives in the supportive company of similarly minded people, such as his colleagues and dear friends, who will recharge his creativity and feed the silent conversation that unfolds between the artist and his work.
The Museum of Zarasai Region will exhibit multi-layered and colourful works on watercolour paper, an offshoot of the artist’s hallmark format of abstracted colour fields on canvas. On a smaller, more intimate scale, they show the author’s current placement and social connectivity in the spacetime continuum.
The exhibition runs from 2nd to 30th August 2024.
