Ieva Putnina

Ieva Putniņa’s range of interests is wide – painting, animation, cinema, performance. Visually, her works are often reminiscent of older art traditions, but the paradoxical plot twists allow them to be located in a completely modern world. Ieva likes to create props to such a degree of reality that you only have to touch them to realize that they are not edible or usable (but maybe they are?). Ieva is a teacher at the Janis Rosenthal Art School. She has exhibited at Low gallery, MABOCA festival, Ag Gallery, 427, Riga, SIC, Helsinki among others. Her large solo exhibition is coming up in KIM? Riga art center in the end of 2025
