In der Ausstellung #DismantlingTheWall. Latvian Art 1985-1991. das Werk von #OjarsPetersons aus dem Jahr 1989. Es ist von erschreckender Aktualität.
"The work shows a human figure beside the facade windows of a tall building. The motiv is related to the tragic event of 1987, when on 5 February the poet, publicist and translator #KlävsElsberg fell in unexplained circumstances from the ninth floor of the Writer's House in Dubulti and died." (Ausstellungstext. Pressematerial)
I painted this pastel painting on velour paper. The texture of this paper contributes to the dreamy, soft and somewhat blurred impression of the pastel painting.
