EnquireAbout the artist
Aleksandrs Breže (1994) graduated from the Graphic Art Department at Gerrit Rietveld Academie (Amsterdam) and the Estonian Academy of Arts (Tallinn). Together with artist Armands Freibergs, he runs the project subspatial.xyz, which evolves around an interest in the relationship between the human body, our environment, graphic design, technology and material science.
Breže is passionate about the narrow distinction between contemporary art and object design – how the first can be domesticated and the latter used for contemplation. His art delves into the struggle for individuality amidst enforced conformity. Through abstract spatial installations, he explores the clash between written laws, religious values and the harsh reality of institutional control. Breže has a proven talent for intricately weaving sculptural narratives, for example, when reflecting memories from his upbringing and study years, as notably showcased in his debut solo exhibition Optimism-Confidence-Charity (2023, LOOK! Gallery, Riga).
