There is a sizzling present between artworks and viewers at \u201cLife on Earth.\u201d The works are showing signs of life: they respond to the touch, play with light, generate strange music. An environment resembling sci-fi, yet describing life on planet Earth, inspired by its multitude of forms and echoing visual utopias. Our eye is turned towards the environment both locally and globally, from the familiar to the microscopic.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The keyword \u201cbio\u201d connects science with art, and underlies art objects inspired by science. Works\u00a0 <\/span>by Kati Kerstna, Erki Kannus, Merle Kannus, Herbert & Kairi Orgusaar were produced this summer during the Haapsalu hot glass symposium titled BIOGLASS. Marine biologist Lennart Lennuk presents an installation of plankton music. The international couple Varvara Guljajeva and Mar Canet create a futuristic, digital illusion of a mystery landscape that flirts with ideas of Anthropocene in their \u201cTree of Hands.\u201d Elo Liiv\u2019s interactive, kinetic installation \u201cPure Art\u201d becomes a dream machine producing pure art, its creators and its receptive audience. Mauri Gross represents Rapla with his tiny \u201cZen Garden\u201d where visitors can leave their imprints. The younger generation is represented by \u201cA Game of Identity\u201d – winner of the audience prize at the Italian Youth Art Biennale – by Egmond Merivee, Iris Allese, Markus Orgusaar and Valeria Potjava.<\/p>\n

Curator: Kairi Orgusaar<\/p>\n
