Maiu Mooses "A View"

On Friday, January 16, at 5 p.m., artist Maiu Mooses will open her exhibition A View at Vabaduse Gallery.

In A View, Maiu Mooses presents abstract works featuring recognizable motifs from nature. The paintings and wooden jewelry were inspired by places and moments that the artist remembers from her travel to Iceland. According to Mooses, the trip opened up new perspectives, approaches, and attitudes. By observing from a distance, it is possible to encounter oneself.

Maiu Mooses (b. 1974, Rapla, Estonia) has attended metal art studies (BA, 1998) and teacher training (2005) at the Estonian Academy of Arts. She has worked as an art teacher at the Rapla Art Society, Kose Art School, and the Art School of Old Town Educational College. Mooses currently teaches at the Viljandi Culture Academy and the Estonian Academy of Arts. The artist has participated in exhibitions with jewelry, paintings, and drawings since 1997. Most recently, Mooses participated in the group exhibitions K.E.S. – The Unfinished Flight of Sütevaka Art Department (Pärnu City Gallery, 2025) and Existences Within Art (Rapla County Centre for Contemporary Art, 2025).

The exhibition A View at Vabaduse Gallery will remain open until February 11, 2026.

The gallery is supported by the Estonian Ministry of Culture, the Cultural Endowment of Estonia, and Liviko Ltd.
