BALTIC DREAMS by Aimee Birnbaum RI

1- 5 June 2016

Exhibition of paintings by Aimee Birnbaum RI, inspired by the indigenous pagan religion of the Baltic peoples.

The ancient deities of the Balts promoted harmony with Nature, and reigned when humans revered and respected the earth. Aimee’s paintings pay homage to a time when people lived in friendly kinship with bees and the sacred was invited into everyday life. Trees were venerated. Fire was revered.
