Peteris Lidaka's Imaginary Planes take model making to infinity and beyond

Date

Last week I was lucky enough to be invited to Riga to speak at the Latvian Art Directors’ Club and was inundated with the people I met telling me about their favourite Latvian creatives. One such name that cropped up was Peteris Lidaka, an artist who’s website I find really compelling. There’s a lot of different projects in his portfolio, ranging from drawings and photographs to paintings, collage and animation, but it was these intriguing models which really caught my eye and captured my imagination. Part of Peteris’ Imaginary Planes series, which itself has several interesting manifestations, they are in turns strange and beautiful and fun and silly, sometimes presented against futuristic backgrounds. Great stuff!
