b. 1995, Lithuania
Exploring the environment through tactility, I try to grasp different phenomena using traditional textile techniques. Hand weaving and knotting are archaic crafts with a clear grid, which I employ to weave stories that capture the present. Presenting my work in the form of installation, I construct intimate spaces where relationships between different experiences and participants are interconnected.
