The exhibition **\"FOR PLAY \/ FOR REAL\"** took place from **July 5 to July 28, 2014**, in **A-Gallery\u2019s Vault**.<\/p>\n
The exhibition is based on real-life games. Through cards and chess pieces, a world unfolds where, as a wishful fantasy, the player has the chance to be a king, a game master, a god. But in defeat, this house of cards can collapse into bleak ruin. Still, that\u2019s nothing to worry about\u2014there\u2019s always another round. Maybe next time you\u2019ll get a better hand or face a weaker opponent. And if all else fails, you can always cheat a little and play the trump card you\u2019ve secretly tucked up your sleeve. Taking life playfully makes it a bit easier to accept that in a world where everything is for sale, you\u2019re not really the one in control of the game\u2014just a mere pawn.<\/p>\n
In Margit Paulin\u2019s jewelry, chess pieces are used as the primary material. In Keiu Koppel\u2019s works, one can find both playing cards and bank cards. Margit and Keiu studied together as coursemates at the Estonian Academy of Arts and are currently working in the same studio.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
