Laura Grinberga uses painting media to describe such a complex topic as life. Life that can be explained and depicted as interconnectedness, continuity, energy in so many and various ways depending on time and space, experience, age, gender, evolution, etc. Life that can be seen from a personal “point” of perspective within the world or macro level, looking at the point from external and larger view and thus the course of things, reasons and probable outcomes as a scheme that eventually can be analyzed, deciphered and anticipated. In most of her works she creates a dimensional dotted relief structure with tiny edges to emphasise the complexity of the matrix, then applying dripped colours. As a contemporary artist she believes that the issue of today is absence of awareness of being One. That can be improved by education as the key for anything. “We are all like the dots on canvas and each one of us is unique and individual, but all of us create the complete scene no matter how each one has developed, shaped, located or exposed. If we work in a progressive way therefore win win form, the total “artwork” appears to be harmonious, transmitting positive energy, on the contrary if there is lack, hate, anxiety, discrimination and so on, the artwork exposes/transmits exactly what it contains.” She uses her art practice as a tool to view and reflect ongoing events from an individual to the whole and, the evolution of humanity to view actuality and the direction.  The World as an entire structure - people, flora, fauna and ecosystem in larger scale dependant on each other without bringing harm to any of the parts.

Visual art is her way to draw attention on awareness and humanity.


Researches


Rebus

2009 - 2015


A profound journey of understanding life, consciousness, and transcendence through the sense of world order. The quest for meaning, life’s origin, emphasising individual perception variations. The narrative draws an analogy between life and a puzzle, where each person, represented as a dot, contributes to the larger picture through diverse movements, colours, and interactions, reflecting the complex interplay of energy and environment. Like a painting comprising smaller units, life is an evolving entity ready to merge into something more significant.
