The exhibition, initially titled PARTY, was intended to take place in April. In the winds of the historical events, it developed into a new iteration \u2013 PARTY\u2019S OVER.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The objects presented at the exhibition can be seen as a bittersweet quest to finding sanctity in contemporary life that is often void of meaning. Through the prism of absurdity, the exhibition ponders on the use and uselessness of the celebratory state of mind, as well as the use in said uselessness. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Below some notes of a party that\u2019s over:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe party is over. Why, with whom, when, where, to whom, how \u2013 these details do not matter. What matters is whether the party was fun or not.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2013 I have noticed that in Estonia many things, like childhood, school time, and even life itself, are trivially compared to a party. Party seems like a simple pleasure \u2013 responsibility and rules do not play a remarkable role, as one can only participate and doesn\u2019t have to worry about the organizing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2013 The phrase \u2018party\u2019s over\u2019 is also thrown into the air very lightly. Party as an adjective is uniformly applied to the whole period before the disaster. It is noted with a bittersweetness that time seems to reveal a pattern, a regularity, that the good times don\u2019t last and punishment for them is certain. Situations where the phrase \u201cparty\u2019s over\u201d is used are usually not appropriate for it, because a party is valued by how special and extraordinary it is. The disaster that makes people say \u2018party\u2019s over\u2019 is not the opposite of a party. For me, the opposite of a party is a smooth passage of time without special moments. A quick change, a surprise, means that the party has just begun.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2013 A party is a revolt against the steady passing of time. Party wins moments but loses to eternity. Eternity will always be boring. I do not believe that man should go through his life doomed dull forever. Instead, time should be wasted, so the indifference of time could be resisted. Moments must be heightened.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Parties can be life-changing or at least they celebrate life-changing events. What should I remember, commemorate, celebrate, forget? Birth, birthday, marriage, funeral, in memoriam day, Easter, Midsummer\u2019s day, Halloween, Christmas, ordinary get-togethers, complete ragers, weeks of binge drinking \u2013 just to name a few. Has partying become outdated? Half from the list of celebrations have become very rare occasions in my life. Would more parties save humanity? Save from what? From an eternity of boredom probably.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sille Luiga<\/strong> (1994) is a master student of jewelry art at the Estonian Academy of Arts and has also studied in Italy and Belgium. Recent exhibitions she has participated in are NID SHOWROOM in London, XENTE NOVA in Santiago de Compostela and JEWELRY AND ANATOMY in Porto. The exhibition PARTY\u2019S OVER is her first solo exhibition. With her objects she wishes to explore ideas about decorating and adorning in a broad absurd embracing way. Soon Sille will defend her master\u2019s thesis on the same topics.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
