“Once Upon a Time in Riga” — DAILE x Karine Paronyanc

Honored as the laureate of the coveted Professor Indulis Zarinsh Art Scholarship, her prowess has carved her a niche that few can rival. Chosen to bear the mantle of Ambassador for Latvian art at the prestigious Baltic Connecting Forum, she resonates as a voice for her homeland's rich artistic heritage. As a distinguished member of the Latvian Artists' Union, Karine has unveiled her genius in over twenty solo exhibitions, leaving indelible marks both locally and on the international stage. Embracing the poetic emblem of the 'Watermelon-lotus', her current artistic endeavors bloom from the sanctum of a workshop ensconced within Riga Botanical Garden's storied walls. Recent commendations shine a spotlight on her "Urban Philosophy" exhibition and an esteemed feature in the 2022 compendium of the Latvian Academy of Sciences.
