LIGHT INSTALLATIONS

At the heart of this installation is the *püstkoda* (tepee/tent) as a material object. Its antithesis is a primal memory – an intangible element stored within us, spreading through the space like smoke. This combination does not lead to annihilation, but creates a new quality.

Light is born.

We invite you to step into this space and pause for a moment to immerse yourself in René Eespere’s musical work "Kodalased" (Dwellers of the Lavvu). In this context, there is a significant linguistic connection: the etymological root of the Estonian word "kodu" (home) derives precisely from the word "koda" (lavvu), thus pointing to a spatial and emotional unity.

In her creative practice, she prioritizes the integrity of the spatial and visual environment and values an experimental approach to material usage and design solutions.

Triin Taberland is a spatial design student at the Estonian Academy of Arts. Her creative work is characterized by an interest in the hands-on design process, focusing primarily on the synergy between space and the individual.
