We invite you to visit the art exhibition by Viktorija Gudžiūnaitė "Double2", which you will find in Gallery A (on the second floor) at the VILNIUS TECH Library.
The author about herself:
I started painting eight years ago at Savickas art school. So my first teacher was Raimondas Savickas. Sunday classes turned out to be small, so I started attending Justinas Vienožinskis art school. Here I had to not only continue my painting lessons, but also get acquainted with graphics. And of course, getting to know unreal teachers. I graduated in 2020. However, I'm still studying – again in the same schools, only with different teachers. In the summers, I participate in plein air. I also have to participate in exhibitions of plein air works.
About the exhibition:
Why "Double2"? Because this is my second personal exhibition. The first took place in a cozy chamber space, unfortunately, during the pandemic. So, over the years, a lot of work has accumulated that I want to show. In this exhibition, I am exhibiting the ones created in 2021-2023, but I also present some earlier ones, because I find them cute, even if they are not perfect.
I would like to divide exhibition into three parts.
The first. Paintings about my hometown Vilnius. I was born here, I grew up here, I became here. For me, Vilnius is a cute, cozy and colorful city, so there is no shortage of colors in my works. I would like the viewer to feel that comfort and warmth as well.
The second. I assigned her to Trakai. The works were born while participating in plein air. I think that the people of Trakai are interesting in their history, comfortable with the surrounding nature. It is always nice and good to paint there.
The third. The closest to me. Because it is the transfer of my imagination, and maybe even my dreams, to the canvas. A little bit of surrealism can be seen in the works. I like to add some unexpected detail.
I always liked bright, rich and contrasting colors. I can express my feelings and emotions through colors. I love colorful life. I think colors brighten up everyday life. I want to make people happy with my work, spread positivity and good mood. It's important to me.
The presentation of the exhibition will take place on February 2, 2.00 p.m. in Gallery A.
The exhibition in Gallery A will be open until February 9.
