More about this artwork

In the painting, a large, textured sphere occupies the central frame, filled with an intricate scene where water and air seem to merge. Within this sphere, numerous fish of varying sizes and shapes swim densely, tangled amidst water bubbles and fluid motions in a predominant teal hue. Below this aquatic ballet, partly submerged in what appears to be a river or a sea, is a human figure. Only the top part of the face, eyes wide open in an expression of surprise or awe, and hands gripping tightly onto the edge of the sphere, are visible. The hands seem to cling to the dividing line between two worlds, emphasizing a palpable tension and interaction between the human and the underwater realms. The entire scene conveys a dreamlike, almost surreal quality, blending elements of the natural world with human emotions and experiences.

Artist

Jūratė Sližytė (Slyžė)

„Creativity is a constant observation of the world, the transformation of accumulated sensations through one's personal prism into concrete material. During the work process, the thought, the vision becomes a specific object or work, which becomes the connection between the creator and the viewer. 

To create art means to study diligently, to improve, to search for new forms of expression throughout one's life, to try to achieve one's "Truth" and to never stop. That "Truth" is usually very simple, but the road to it is long and often winding.”

Jūratė works with various graphic techniques, water-colours, acrylic, creates various objects, also from recycled materials. Every artist has their own philosophy when creating their works.
