CABINET OF FOLKSONGS. 2014-2021
Cabinet of Folksongs is a collection of wishes and dreams. It consists of anonymous dating advertisements. Being anonymous, they are often strange, dirty, full of fantasies and in some cases - beyond the ordinary fantasy. During the preparation of this project it was considered, that advertisements are so spicy, that they are to be put behind the closed doors. Once the door is open, the sound appears that is also linked to some ways of fulfilling dreams and fantasies.
This work developed throughout several exhibitions. The latest version was acquired by The Latvian National Museum of Arts. It consists of 8 videos and 19 advertisements.
