Latvian, based in Riga
Anna Egle (born 1990), is a sculptor from Riga. For over a decade, she worked on sacred sculpture projects in the United States, where her works can be found in private collections. Anna’s experience in sculpture spans a wide range – from delicate, jewellery-like sculptures to large-scale projects with 6 and 9-meter-tall clay figures, later cast in bronze.
In 2017 Anna Egle received her master’s degree in sculpture from the Art Academy of Latvia.
Since 2011, she has organized solo exhibitions in Latvia and participated in group exhibitions in Latvia and Europe. In her practice, Anna Egle uses various contemporary sculptural materials. Her love of art is inherited from her family. As a child, Egle lived with the creative processes in her parents' art studio and experimented with various materials and techniques.
Currently, Anna Egle is interested in creating works that enrich and balance a space's atmosphere. Her works are characterised by lightness, simplicity of form, and a light-reflecting texture. Anna Egle often complements her works with poetic language to deepen their perception. She is also fascinated by other creative techniques, such as performative and musical dimensions, as an extension of her enjoyment of sculptural works.
