Laura Vizbule (born in 1983)
I was born and grew up in Jelgava. After graduating from the Riga Art and Design High School (Glass Design Department), I continued my studies at the Latvian Art Academy in the glass art department. Now I am a second-year student at the Latvian Academy of Arts in the master’s program. Although my specialty is related to glass, I have always felt the desire to paint. The main thing in my works is color and their mutual relations, rhythm, lines. People often see a reference to my glass works in my paintings. In 2014 and 2015, I organized several personal exhibitions in Jelgava, Liepaja, Tervete and Alsunga. For several years, my work was related to pedagogy. I taught children both at the Jelgava Art School and as a leader of the glass art group. I have been the main artist of the city of Jelgava for two years now. Outside of work, I always try to find time for painting, continuing to participate in various exhibitions.
