Blues. Deivi Tuppits and Matthieu Quincy

Sometimes good things come out of the blue. They are not foreseen but rather found, discovered and cherished in the elusive moments of eternity.

 

We find ourselves carried away by this unexpectedness, by the motions, the poetics, the colours etc. And within this sensation there stands a hope for a wild blue yonder as well as a strange melancholy of the fleeting times. Perhaps that is where beauty lies.

 

So is this collaboration - beforehand an unexpected artistic symbiosis, an earnest attempt to capture some unity and permanence of common life. Maybe beauty. But as many times before - it is only to turn out impossible as time and space have their own design. Yet we are to discover what is it that unites, what is it that is perpetual. lt turned out to be the eternal shades of blues as a symbol that we found as mutual. Both in words and in things that cannot ever be put to words, no matter how hard hundreds of poets and artists have attempted before. May this project be our own subjective contribution to that series in current times, in the course of our joint being.

 

The purpose of this work and collection was to bind different art forms. Never to overlap, but to fortify. To prove the possibility of unconditional affiliation of people, perhaps just to reach the understanding that the last and the most faithful companion is our solitude. But once in a blue moon this understanding can lead to something greater. Even if it's just a moment tried to be caught.

 

Or in the words of Louise Bourgerois:

 

''You are born alone. You die alone. The value of the space

in between is trust and love. That is why geometrically

speaking the circle is a one. Everything comes to you

from the other. You have to be able to reach the other.

lf not you are alone..."

 

Deivi Tuppits

is an Estonian theatre researcher and a critic. She has been investigating the narrative essence of human mind and self-expression. Although having mostly been published theatre reviewsthis is the second public exposition of her poetic creation.

 

Matthieu Quincy

is a professional ballet dancer and also a self-taught photographer in his spare time. As oppose to live and ephemeral dance art, he has for years been intrigued by the stillness and eternity that goes with photographic art. He believes that his two passions, the dynamic and the captured art can ultimately feed one another.

lt is the second exhibition of his analog photographic art.

 

Exhibition is open at the library of Estonian University of Life Sciences until 20th of December 2018.
