Katrina Neiburga

Katrina Neiburga is one of the most popular Latvian artists of this decade. Combining documental materials with fiction, she creates stories based on personal experience, in which, alongside such unique categories as solitude or love, it is possible to find indications both to the woman's social role structures and cultural historical references or critical commentaries on modern society. The artist wonderfully expresses herself through video which, supplemented by specifically elaborated sound material, results in an amazing and sensitive intonation of narration.
