Pleasure can be derived from sex. Pleasure can come from a drink on a hot day. Pleasure can also be experienced together with other emotions -- emotions that have long been gnawing at your insides like a hungry gnat. When the anger is so great that you want to throw up. When you’re disgusted. When you have always been disgusted. When the anger is so great that you don't want to eat. You wear it down to nothing but anger. You cut, hit, tear. Then the anger leaves you and only bones remain.
"Pleasure/Anger" by Oliver Ķīsis reflects on disgust and anger in the search for identity. Exhibition is a part of the small press festival “Sābrs”.
Oliver graduated from the Latvian Art Academy program Movement. Image. Sound and participated in the exhibitions with colleagues as well as the Fifth diploma group exhibition in Kronvalda boulevard 4 with the animation work "Everything I remember". Currently, the artist is engaging in animation and painting in his small room.
