VISUAL
INTERMISSION
Lelde Cauka is a Latvian-born visual artist currently living and working in Los Angeles, CA.
Classically trained in fine arts since the age of 10, Lelde has received education from various art schools in Latvia, including the Art Academy of Latvia. She received her diploma in Environmental Design from the LCA Latvian Culture College in 2013.
Her work ranges from realistic still life and portrait paintings to exploration of color and shape in textiles. Her current work voices abstractionism and simplicity. It is deeply rooted in her Northern European upbringing while intertwining with the exposure of her intercultural surroundings living in Los Angeles.
Lelde's abstract paintings and tapestries are interactive pieces, purposefully avoiding photographic reflection of reality. They are inviting the viewer to research their subconsciousness through color, texture, and shape.
