Artwork from my latest exhibition Warp Tool:
In older times when people used stationary phones, on which to dial you had to turn the numbers with a wheel, next to the phone was a piece of paper and a pen for notes, but usually when in a conversation, they were used for scribbling unconsciously. Rarely in these scribblings you could see specific forms, sometimes even something abstract. In my opinion it is a research worthy phenomenon, which nearly all of humanity has done. Working as a graphic designer, often between jobs, for example, while waiting for an answer from the client, in the program Adobe Illustrator, I drew some circle and not thinking much I deformed it with the “warp” tool. Continued to do it similarly to the older days when talking on the phone and scribbling on paper. Drew more circles and again deformed them, began to put them together, and as a result I had made an ornament, which did not have a real use in graphic design. When I began making carpets with the tufting technique, I remembered these unconsciously created drawings, and they finally had a use in a completely different medium – textile design.

Returning to my first profession – textile arts, I have evolved a long cherished project, making specially soft wool carpets with the tufting technique. This technique differs from the general textile techniques, with the fact that it uses a special tool to shoot fringes through a fabric, therefore creating the intended design. With this technique it is possible to achieve different heights of the fringes (98%wool, 2%acrylic), which creates a 3D Effect.

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.
