Project Hanging Paintings been noticed by art/design media and works been published all around. They've been exhibited in New York, London and Vilnius during art festivals, art competitions and group exhibitions. The upcoming group and solo shows include cities like Berlin, Rome, Beijing. ---- I was missing two aspects in Painting – appropriate portrayal of what we are and true connectivity between the artwork and the viewer. I wanted to create paintings that wouldn’t just hang on the wall as a plain visual expression of something that has happened to me or I experienced in any other way. I needed a work that would be outlasting same things as I am, at the same time and place. I needed and a companion… I wanted to see myself, hanging on the wall in front of me. Hanging Paintings documents and mimics one of the biggest parts of our existence that’s been with us from the very beginning and what separates us from the others – dressing up by covering our bodies with fabric for aesthetical and functional reasons. And most importantly textile compositions experience and depict the same physical conditions as we do – light, temperature, humidity, gravity, wind, etc. Every single piece that I did for these series felt like a revelation to me and I keep doing them over and over again. What I love about them the most is that they are absolutely good-for-nothing object and that nobody ever wore them and nobody will. ---- This is Season 01 of a project Hanging Paintings.

Visual perception together with a creative process is very much influenced by the things that have been learned while working as an architect. I was deeply interested in human behavior and habits – I worked around or with them. Now, as for the artist, the field of interest stayed the same – I question what affects our actions in a certain way and can these things be changed. I operate in a laboratory where creative thinking serves as a foundation for experiments that are trying to envision our behavioral boundaries. As an artist, I document, transform, recreate or get rid of them. It is a delight obligation to take mundane, banal objects or occurrences and strip them to their basic concepts which work as a refreshment, helping us to find things that have been forgotten or taken for granted. My creative style is very much affected by my architectural background as well: the process is systematic; all my artistic decisions are calculated and I’m always looking for the most hygienic expressions so ideas would become as clean as possible.
