Solo art exhibition of illustrations and montages by Pirko Edes“In the spring of 2022, at the age of 31, my life took an unexpected turn with the sudden diagnosis of a stage two astrocytoma brain tumour.
To visually document this transformative journey, I’m creating a series of artworks. Each piece will feature a central illustration, figurative yet abstract to convey the emotional depth of my experiences. Alongside each illustration, there will be a corresponding “montage.”
This two-part approach allows viewers to explore the theme from multiple perspectives. The illustrations provide a glimpse into the emotional landscape, while the montages offer concrete details and facts through text, photos, and objects. This creates a richer, more layered experience, a visual conversation, ultimately offering a deeper understanding of my journey.
Driven by a desire to share this experience, I’m working towards organising an exhibition of these artworks.“
Exhibition launch: Monday 24th June (6pm – 8pm), with a performance of the Castle Choir.
