Vardas Pavarde

Conceptions, ideas and works have accumulated over the past years. They've fragmentary been presented in group exhibitions, where there was not possible to extract a solid narrative. I wanted to  purify one of the themes that was constantly recurring in my works: large-format paintings and their cycles which explore the subjective experience of a woman's life through the abstracted variety of motives related to nature and natural phenomena. The nature inspires certain spiritual states that later appear in my paintings. This subject seems relevant to me by its existential and poetical character and also in a context of contemporary ecofeministic tradition which finds its expression in Lithuanian contemporary art field. Therefore my paintings are dedicated to a wide circle of art viewers interested in both visual and philosophical contexts of modern and contemporary culture.

The role of void as nobody's, “outside” land is important to me. The ephemeral, disappearing images (the motives of change, fading colors, decay, disintegration, vanishing of traces) are dominating in the paintings. In this context of disappearance and death aesthetics, the existence of items and objects is just intuited, sometimes they do not exist at all.
