Trešdien, 26. septembrī, plkst. 18:30 ISSP telpā notiks ISSP Rīgas Rezidences mākslinieces Josefinas Malmegardas (Zviedrija) autorvakars.
Māksliniece šobrīd uzturas Rīgā, kur ISSP Rīgas Rezidences ietvaros strādā pie jauna projekta. Publiskajā prezentācijā viņa iepazīstinās ar saviem līdzšinējiem un šībrīža projektiem, rosinot diskusiju par darbos attēlotajām tēmām un savu individuālo pieeju fotogrāfijas medijam.
Josefina Malmegarda ir fotogrāfe no Zviedrijas ar iepriekšēju pieredzi filmu mākslā, kura savos darbos galvenokārt izmanto video, instalācijas un fotogrāfijas medijus. Ieguvusi maģistra grādu Karaliskajā Mākslas Institūtā, Stokholmā. Mākslinieces darbi izmeklē psiholoģiskās ainavas publiskās un privātās telpas sociālajās struktūrās. Caur savām video instalācijām viņa cenšas sasniegt lūzuma punktu, kurā skatītājs un viņas radītais darbs sapludina fantāzijas un realitāti. Malmegardas video darbi, kuri bieži vien tiek prezentēti apļveida formā, spēlējas ar filmas žanra konvencijām. Šie darbi ir stāsti, kuri nekur neved, tiem nav nepieciešama kulminācija, to sākums var būt tieši tāds pats, kā beigas. Šogad māksliniece ir dokumentējusi daudz dažādu ceļu. Viņu interesē arhitektūras, ceļa sistēmas cilvēka ķermenī un dabas procesu savstarpējās attiecības. Tās māksliniece redz kā komunikācijas saites starp laicīgo un garīgo pasauli.
Ieeja brīva, pasākums norisināsies angļu valodā
Norises vieta: ISSP Galerija (Berga Bazārs, Marijas iela 13, k-3)

ISSP is happy to host an artist talk by ISSP Riga Residency artist Josefina Malmegård on Wednesday 26th of September 6:30PM.
The artist is currently developing new work as a part of the ISSP Riga Residency programme. The public presentation will introduce the photographer's former and current projects, encouraging a discussion about the topics represented in her work as well as her individual approach to photography and working methods.
Josefina Malmegård is a Swedish artist with a background in film studies and works primarily with video, installation and photography. She holds a Master degree in Fine Arts at the Royal Institute of Art in Stockholm. The artist's works investigate psychological landscapes withing the social structures of public and private spaces. Through video installations Malmegård aims to access a breaking point in which the viewer and the work may come together dissolving fantasies and one's own reality. Her videos, often presented as loops, play with film conventions. The videos are stories which do not need a climax or lead anywhere, the beginning may be the same as the end; an unresolved mystery in The X-files. This year the artist has documented different kinds of roads. She is interested in the relationship between architecture, path-systems in our bodies and processes in nature. Malmegård sees these as communication lines between our world and the spiritual.
Free entrance, the event will take place in English
Location: ISSP Gallery (Berga Bazārs, Marijas iela 13, k-3)
