CONNECTING LINK: Exhibition dedicated to the memory of Reet Varblane

Curators: Ulla Juske and Jana Huul

Designer: Villu Plink

Artists: Sveta Grigorjeva, Eva Labotkin, Villu Plink, Jüri Ojaver, Marje Taska and Silja Saarepuu

What if we didn’t think of death as a final and irreversible end, but as a dynamic process where life and death are intertwined? What if grief was not only the pain of loss, but a creative force that would open the way to memories, connections and new beginnings? What if we thought of the relationship with the dead as a living and meaningful one, where the departed remain among us through stories, dreams, rituals and actions.

The exhibition is a tribute to Reet’s life and work, showcasing also the documentation of the final act of her last major curatorial project Baton from Kütiorg to Kadriorg. Force. Spirit. Power, in which Reet could no longer take part in. More broadly, the exhibition is a contemplation on the mystery of the humankind’s inner world and death as a vital force.
