Rait Rosin (Estonia) an artist’s statement
Rait Rosin is practising artist and scholar of pragmatist philosophy. His master thesis on pragmatist aesthetics is focused on topic: In which way emotionally enriched expression could be conceptualised as wholesome and on what extent we could account this conception as useful for artist practices. His works are rooted in conceptual art disciplines whereas film, installation, performance, painting and drawing are the basic medias for expression. Paintings are made in expressive way without much conceptualising of the objectives. Emotional patterns as one side of the expression are for creating the main character of painted images. Videos, films and performances have secondary importance in Rait's own valued perspectives. There all out figured situations have more general ground for simply understandable contextual ideas. By the way paintings are giving for artist more change for drawing emotionally enriched compositions and fantastic figures. Sympathies are more given as personal visions and preferred issues that lay on hope to have more intimate relatedness in social situations, we are living in as personalities, who may give ideas according to such a way mixed and domesticated private or public interests.
