Exhibition that delves into the subconscious opens in Tallinn

 

Painter Eduard Zentsik is known for his dreamlike and symbolist works. Originally from Sillamäe, in eastern Estonia, Zentsik regularly holds exhibitions all over Estonia, but now for the first time in a long time, his work can also be seen in Tallinn. The exhibition will open on November 1, at 6 pm at the Hearts Art Gallery in Tallinn’s Old Town.

GOLDEN LOVE is a one-of-a-kind art exhibition that, in typical Zentsik style, invites the viewer on an exciting journey into the depths of the unconscious. In this world, where art becomes a mirror to inner experiences and hidden emotions, the artist reveals his latest works.

The exhibition offers a dive into a mysterious world of images where fantasy intertwines with reality, where the boundaries between the subconscious and the conscious, the visible and the invisible, become blurred. The magical world becomes real. The genuine gold used in the works symbolises femininity and spiritual and material wealth.

Metaphors, hidden symbols and a subtle play of light and shadow create pieces where the viewer gains a new perspective on the limits of the female image and the richness of the inner world.

The exhibition “GOLDEN LOVE” will be open at Hearts Art Gallery (Uus 7, Tallinn) from November 1 to 21.
