The Lithuanian summers of my childhood remain etched in my memory: the colours of the garden flowers, the shapes of various pebbles in my palm, the glister of candy wrappers on the floor in the grandmother's house. All of these were the raw materials for my earliest artistic experiments.
Later, I graduated from the J. Martinaitis Children's Art School, where I studied various art disciplines. After school followed university studies and later work as a landscape architect, but the desire to return to art in its purest form always remained.
For the last ten years, I have been a member of the group of painters "Antaniniai obuoliai", led by the famous Lithuanian painter A. Obcarskas. I had the pleasure to take part in many group exhibitions held in various Lithuanian galleries. Every year I participate in painters' plein air events organised by the group. Now, I am actively creating in my own studio and preparing for a new personal exhibition.
In my artwork, I like to experiment a lot. I leave the traditional format of creation behind and seek out unconventional possibilities. When creating collages, I use a lot of non-traditional materials - rope, wire, stones. I like to give the works a sculptural form, which is intriguing to look at from different angles. Each time a different shadow falls, it ushers a breath of new life into the artwork.
In my latest series of works, I settled on minimalism, both in colour and form. These works are philosophical existential reflections, where I, as the author of the work, invite the viewer for an individual reflection and broader discussion.
