Tees Valley Solo Show Selected Artist: Sigita Silica


We are pleased to announce that the winner of the Tees Valley Solo Show is Sigita Silina. 

Sigita is a contemporary Latvian-born photographer, filmmaker, and visual artist currently based in Darlington.  Her practice takes a keen interest in sociocultural dynamics and looks into the transformative power of visual language, technology, and social ideologies on the intricacies of human behaviour.

Informed by the realms of cognitive science and visual expression, Sigita's interdisciplinary approach seamlessly merges still images and videos, employing both digital and analogue mediums.
 


'I am deeply honoured to have been selected for the Tees Valley solo Show. This opportunity means a great deal to me, and I know the support and platform provided will be invaluable, and I can’t wait to share the final piece with audiences. Over the next few month I look so much forward to collaborate with the team. I am extremely excited to bringing this project to life at MAW25'

We look forward to working with Sigita over the coming months and seeing this exhibition develop on the lead up to this year's festival!

It was pleasure to work with Abi Shapiro, Curator at the Hepworth Wakefield, Artist Liz Wilson and Polly Wright, Curator at Devonshire Collective, who were the selectors for this open call.
