Lauris Milbrets

In my drawings I picture an urban environment, the variety of which inspires me.
A city is saturated with many contrasting elements, which characterize its peculiarity.
I like to find and fix a chosen environment fragment on a paper, assigning a meaning for a specific place or region. The target is to highlight a significant and to conceal non-essential.
I could compare my drawings with entries in a diary from any trips abroad. It is interesting to observe a daily rhythm of a city.
The most important mean of expression in my drawings is a line.
The uniqueness of the line can be compared to the human handwriting, which for everyone is personal. I like a linear purity. During the drawing process it is very exciting to be a chief of the borders to things, which I wish to include in a composition.
As an instrument for the drawing I have chosen an ink roller ball pen.
Within the research of a city I try to visit central victory and historical monuments, which show the human efforts to make the things eternal. However in such objects there is encoded a pride of a nation, in my drawings I choose to picture simple and ordinary landscapes of an urban environment.
