Escaping to the Surface, 2025
Inkjet print
The project rethinks the relationship with urban space by observing the transformation of a part of Vilnius’s Old Town—from a somewhat chaotic childhood environment to a representative yet distant area of the city. It reveals subtle, personal connections to places as they persist in memories and experiences. The project raises questions about the sensory, childhood-formed human bond with the environment, as well as the layered nature of space and place and their changing dynamics. The work is composed of three parts: four photographs, a video loop, and a Tiffany 3D stained glass piece. The photographs marked the beginning of the project’s development. I discovered them while browsing through a family album. They appear to capture my initial perception of the place. Over time, the location has changed to varying degrees—each small detail now seems to move the way the place looks further away from what feels like its truest version, the one preserved in those photographs.
