Through furrows, layers, ditches, and veins the Dark ground runs across the horizon like an empty field. It is a transitional space, holding within it all possibilities. A realm that extends deeper than three-dimensionality. The exhibition Dark Ground is the materialization of a year-long conversation between artist Tiina Sarapu and curator Maarja Mäemets. Their shared discussions, sparked by an interest in the possibilities and significance of physical space in artistic practices, led to a search for deeper roots. The Earth is the foundation, the unnoticed bearer whose limits are constantly tested by human hands. It is the fertile ground for rooting possibilities and hope. With Sarapu’s characteristic precision and boldness, she peers with an X-ray gaze through this multi-layered complexity, trusting her creations to carry herself into unknown places.
