Rafał Piesliak’s new exhibition. The man who has not seen the horizon

@ DELFI

A young artist from the Vilnius Region, Rafał Piesliak, will mount his exhibition called “The man who has not seen the horizon” (“Žmogus, kuris nematė horizonto”) at (AV17) gallery. The opening ceremony will take place today at 6pm.

“This isn’t an exhibition per se. It’s more of a large installation which you’ll have to look at as a whole. It is meant to evoke emotions. The installation alludes to its name itself, namely a man who has not seen the horizon doesn’t really know what is true and what is false,” Piesliak told PL DELFI.

Rasał Piesliak belongs to the new generation of Lithuanian concept-shapers. In his work he examines our emotional bond with reality. In 2003 he graduated from a Lithuanian Academy of Fine Arts.

The exhibition will be open till 13th January.
