Hello, Dear Visitor!

I am an artist Aili Vint from Estonia, Europe. I come from the middle of the last century (born in 1941), but still paint the Sea — the old-fashioned way. Miles and miles of it, from the home shore to the horizon. I am lucky, as I have the Sea as a source of inspiration and my model for over 70 years. The Sea has my endless gratitude forever. I don’t know anyone else who through the constantly changing times would stay the same forever.

Heie Treier, Estonian Art Critic: Woman & Sea. Kunst Magazine, 74/ 21 1989: Aili Vint has not tied herself to any particular line, although her work is full of quotations of pop and opp-art, glow in light sculptures and series of colored etchings. But she always keeps returning to the Sea. The Sea is in eternal motion and the details, which the artist perceives at a blink, - something mesmerizing, existential and quintessential, - is gone with the next moment. All that remains is an experience of a person who is able to revive and magnify this on a canvas. his is an extremely direct approach to the subject of art and the result allows contact with the most diverse audience - a rather unusual phenomenon in contemporary art at all.

SEA & ME

The Sea just is, even after the most ferocious storm it calms down, it’s gentle and tender again.— Just like me! — I am the Sea.

I am the Sea.—The Sea is painting me.

Have you considered how similar the Soul of the Sea and that of a Woman is? Really, remember yourself…

You can see the invisible connect between nature and our senses…

When contemplating the sensuousness of nature as expressed in the Sea's psyche, one can see the invisible connect between nature and our senses. Therefore, there is a subtle between my seascapes, my sensual abstracts, and depictions of the female form. Through those images I tell the story of the sensuality of the Sea. The sea has innumerable moods. Sometimes it’s a want on trickster, sometimes inhumanly cruel, sometimes just indifferent.This comes naturally to the sea.

My blessing (and curse) is that I have many styles and ways of expression. This is the main reason why it's so difficultfor me just to choose one. Upon reviewing the work I've done throughout my lifetime, I had a new idea of recyclingthem – of putting them together as very large collages in a totally new awareness. I have combined my tiny abstract gouache paintings and sensual etchings with my seascapes to create huge new works. Now they are as big as my seascapes. In my installations they represent the moods and whims of the sea. My goal is to reveal the soul of the sea. They represent the moods and whims of the Sea.

NB! In the subsequent big collage my small Pop-Art gouache paintings transform the same big than my oil paintings! Through those images I tell the story of the sensuality of the Sea. They are like Souls of the Sea, just like ghosts in the exhibition room that appear above my seas for a moment and disappear the next. If you look at the huge collages in the order they are placed in my website, then you can see them, and “read” them, like a novel, which the pictures all together tell.



With my guash paintings I tell the story of the sensuality of the Sea, they are like Souls of the Sea 2019

Digicollage what combined from Aili Vint’s original paintings: (1962–2018) and could be designed as large as the exhibition space allows, even on the ceiling and the floor..


…like Silence before a storm

…a new Storm is coming

… and we get Quiet again
