In the Middle of the Day Sculpture

Silja Pogule is a Latvian contemporary artist working in textiles and painting. Her artistic journey commenced during her formative years, influenced by the ever-changing colors of Latvia's landscape and her grandmother's expertise in textile craft. Fueled by her passion for art, Pogule pursued Textile Arts at Riga Design and Art School, culminating in an MFA from the Art Academy of Latvia, specializing in Monumental Painting. Her art is distinguished by its vibrant colors and abstract forms, gracefully marrying painting and textile into a harmonious whole. With nearly two decades of experience as a graphic designer, her art bears the imprint of this rich influence. Pogule's creations have graced solo and group exhibitions across Europe, earning acclaim for her visionary "Collection of Modular Sweets." Within this collection, sweetness is explored conceptually, liberated from the daily grind, and celebrated as a desire, an emotion, and a unique lens through which to perceive the world. Pogule's art has found a cherished place in private collections worldwide, spanning the USA, Canada, Singapore, Brazil, Netherlands, UK, Ireland, Germany, and beyond. Presently, she is actively engaged in international exhibition projects, promising fresh and innovative perspectives at the crossroads of textile arts, painting, and design.
