My solo show I-Sanctuary in Galerie Kabinet T. in the Czech Republic concerns personal iconography and spaces of reverence. In this project I integrated and re-combined the elements of my visual language: starting from drawing as my main instrument and moving to a Gesamtkunstwerk format. In the exhibition a red carpet guided the visitors through the space to the closing piece Practice of Silence, summarizing the total experience of the show and arousing transcendental and psychedelic perceptions in the viewer. On opening day, as a welcome performance, I presented the visitors with an I-necklace made especially for the occasion.

Growing up in the Soviet Union, Irina Birger experienced the powerful mechanisms of propaganda that repress independent thought and inquiry. Its methods were not just practical, but also extremely visual. Social Realist style and Stalinist Imperial architecture greatly influenced her artistic development. Their monumental arrangements inspire admiration, humility and wonder, similar to the visual impact of the Russian Orthodox Church and other sacred formations. As a result, she is strongly interested in the visual strategies and formal principles of different religions, cults and totalitarian regimes, and incorporate them in her work. Central symmetry, patterns, slogans and monumental approach appear in her drawings, installations and animations. Birger's visual language takes its cue from patterns and structures in science, myth, astrology, pop-culture, news articles, everyday objects and personal items. She selects, isolates, arranges and reconnects them. Each work is a mini universe with its own system. Spending most of time in her studio, she always focused on drawing as her major medium. In the last few years Birger started to use drawing as a site-specific part of an installation, in performances, and as elements in the public space and in animations.
