Madara Tropa

Congratulations for winning The Elizabeth Sloan Tyler Memorial Award in the fine art category!

Tropa (b. Latvia 1987) is a visual artist living in between Latvia and Mexico. Her art work probes the limits of fiction and reality in a search for her most profound understanding of being. Using painting, installation, and video, Madara constructs dream-like spaces where the sense of human vacancy is uncertain and nebulous. During 2019 she exhibited in ¨Many Faces¨ (The Living Gallery Outpost NY, New York), “Shugar” (National Numismatic Museum, Mexico City, Mexico), and the “Jazeps Pigoznis Landscape Painting Competition” (St Peter’s Church and Daugavpils Regional Museum of Art, Riga and Daugavpils, Latvia). You can find out more about her at madaratropa.com.

Look for her works in our upcoming December 2019 issue of The Woven Tale Press.
