Sigrid Uiga’s “Pirita” has been carried by the spirit of the period. Most probably many people remember the 1960ies by such colours and motifs – also the ones, who had not even been born then. Young people are hustling enthusiastically around at sea, preparing an active vacation.
Clean and joyful colour surfaces emphasize even more the optimism and variety concert merriment, reflecting from the whole painting. In addition to the mood, Uiga seems to have been deeply interested in the composition, where by the means of landscapes is created an original rhythm on the painting surface.
These were the works of that period, which had to be painted in order to become an artist. Obviously the young artist has done it with pleasure and joy, being sure of her skills.
