Between Roots and Rooftops<\/h4>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Special exhibition for The World EXPO Osaka<\/p>\n

In a rapidly urbanizing world, cities are often perceived as places disconnected from nature. Yet Lithuania and Japan offer a different vision\u2014one where urban life and greenery exist in harmony.<\/span><\/p>\n

For me as an artist, the daily walk to my studio is more than just a commute\u2014it\u2019s a quiet ritual. Along the way, I collect leaves and plants, grounding myself in the present moment. It\u2019s a time to slow down and observe the subtle, seasonal shifts in the natural world around me.<\/span><\/p>\n

I grew up in the countryside, where nature was an integral part of everyday life. In 2020, I began collecting plants daily\u2014not merely as a habit, but as a form of documentation. I began photographing people interacting with nature in urban environments and incorporating these images into collages created from the leaves I gathered.<\/span><\/p>\n

What began as a simple act of reflection became something more profound\u2014a growing awareness of how privileged I am to live in a city where nature is always within reach. Each day, I pass through parks, tree-lined streets, and open green spaces. This easy access to greenery is not just a backdrop to my routine; it\u2019s a necessity\u2014a quiet yet powerful reminder of how deeply connected we remain to the natural world, even in the heart of the city.<\/span><\/p>\n

Both Japanese and Lithuanian cultures place a strong emphasis on the importance of nature in urban life. It\u2019s embedded in our cultural codes. Due to our similar climates and four distinct seasons, we share some of the same flora and fauna.<\/span><\/p>\n

The birds and plants shown here are common in the cities of both Lithuania and Japan. With green spaces easily accessible in urban areas, these species become a natural part of people\u2019s everyday experiences.<\/span><\/p>\n

Soft Weapon<\/h4>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Special exhibition for The National Museum of Lithuania<\/p>\n

Soft but dangerous. This installation is another reminder that women who fought for the country’s freedom in the past are significant. However, women fought differently than men because women rarely had a weapon. Referring to this difference, the artist searched for symbols and materials to describe this gentle brawl.<\/span><\/p>\n

The hair left a mark in historical contexts in some ways. Partisan liaison officers carried messages in the braided hair, which was a successful way for safe transfer. Braid, as a gentleness attribute, becomes a bravery and determination symbol. The installation Soft Weapon combines gentleness and a cold iron gun into one body.<\/span><\/p>\n
