L U G U S  Estonian-born Merike Lugus states, "As William Blake would have it, every one of us is poised between Heaven and Hell, joy and despair, higher aspirations and bodily needs. In my art I explore the discomforts and absurdities as well as the sublime beauty and fragility in this, our human condition. At the moment I am focussing more on our dreams of flying and our desire to transcend."
