Liisa Kruusamägi`s "Soda-pop on asphalt"
The
bohemian aesthetics of disorder and the cozy irregularity are
expressed in Kruusmägi's work. Among the motifs the artist has used
there are plants, books, musical instruments, mirrors, wine
glasses, other miscellaneous objects, cats, dogs and snakes. Chaotic
heaps of clothes in her homes where the the artist has been living
during the different phases of her life. An observant viewer can also
detect autobiographical references on the depicted walls in
Kruusmägi's work. On closer inspection it turns out that the artist
has painted her earlier work in her paintings. The motif of
constructing a home is important for Kruusmägi namely for the
intimacy of atmosphere where the dense text of objects and people are
formed.
