Reinis Liepa (born 15 July 1982) is a Latvian artist working in painting, drawing and other techniques.
Reinis Liepa is a controversial Eastern European artist by being so harsh and soft at the same time, by pairing sex with power and innocence with dreams. His paintings are either very dynamic, very “in your face”, or either very light, very calm. No matter which of the paths he chooses, Liepa’s works are always involving and otpeg. In his paintings, artists set our attention away from everyday stresses and problems through milky colors and shades that he uses. We observe and at the same time we dream. We look through lenses to life as it is and as we want it to be as well. Through his artwork he talks a lot about simple beauty of our life, of the pursuit of happiness, of our dreams and hopes, not moving too far from the reality. Liepa is a Mater of Arts and has had exhibitions in most of the important art cities in Europe.
