Miljard Kilk
Reality - inside or outside?

An exhibition of the paintings of a distinguished Estonian hyperrealist, the uniquely original and highly cherished Miljard Kilk, is on display at Haus Gallery until October 21. The surrealistic figure compositions with mythological and religious undertones represent the artist’s creation over the last few years, providing an intimate insight into his inner world. Miljard Kilk’s present world appeals to both the viewer’s inner sense as well as their cognition of the outside world, suggesting there is no other reality but what we make ourselves.

Forest. Portraits

The exhibition portrays the forest by valuating is as a constantly changing lively environment, and dealing with the relationships between people and the forest. The exhibition includes a display of works from three series. The forest area catches your eye and takes you along by dislocating the sense of space. The paintings about mazes deal with the relationships between wild spaces and human impact; they combine the views of structural and classifying diversity of undergrowth mazes, comparing it to the regular monotony of human culture. The portraits of the trees give a closer look at tree stems, portraying their different looks and how they offer a living environment for many other species: lichens, mosses, mushrooms, and beetles.
