Agnese Kurzemniece
"For me, art is a meditation and also a form of communication. Through universal intersections of events and personal stories, using symbolic and surreal elements, I create visual narratives that confuse reality and imagination, aspiring to instill empathy and understanding."
At the moment, Agnese has been actively focused on acrylic painting, continuing in painting and developing themes in her graphic artworks centered on a woman and her world. With her graphic and painting work, Agnese has participated in many local and international exhibitions.
