Multidisciplinary visual artist Kitty Ritig is set to captivate audiences once again with her annual collection. With an imaginative blend of artistry and introspection, Ritig’s showcase promises a transformative journey into the depths of divine love and self-acceptance.

Kitty Ritig’s creative workshops on self-acceptance and artistic practice provide a nurturing space for individuals to explore their intrinsic worthiness. With her expertise as a visual artist and lecturer of Fine Arts, Ritig guides participants through transformative exercises aimed at fostering resilience and authenticity. Attendees engage in introspective activities to celebrate the beauty of imperfection and cultivate acceptance of their creative selves.

At the heart of Ritig’s concept lies a profound exploration of humanity’s essence, transcending external attributes to unveil the inherent softness within each individual. Her collection challenges viewers to confront the dichotomy between the Creator’s boundless affection and the self-imposed barriers of self-assessment hindering its embrace. Ritig invites audiences to reflect on their inner selves and recognise the unconditional love extended to them by the Creator. Her work beckons introspection, fostering a sense of belonging and acceptance amidst the complexities of human existence.

Ritig’s figures, developed over the years, serve as poignant symbols of vulnerability and authenticity, celebrating the beauty of imperfection and the resilience of the human spirit. The exhibition, spanning from February 14th to 17th, offers a unique opportunity to immerse oneself in the profound depths of self-discovery and love.

In a special feature, alongside the exhibition, Ritig will deliver a live painting performance at Cauldron Kirulapana on February 14, starting at 6 pm. Embracing the theme of “Come as You Are,” the performance celebrates the diversity of love in all its forms, inviting individuals to embrace their current situations with grace and acceptance.

Drawing inspiration from the romantic connotations of February 14, Ritig’s performance challenges societal norms, urging individuals to recognise and celebrate love in its myriad manifestations. Whether single or coupled, all are welcome to partake in this evening of creative expression and acceptance.

For further details and updates, interested individuals can connect with Kitty Ritig on Instagram at @kittyritig. Spread the word, bring your friends, and join us in celebrating love and acceptance through the transformative power of art. Let us come together and make this evening one to remember, as we embrace the beauty of imperfection and the universal language of love.
