More about this artwork

The painting depicts a surreal scene where the real and fantastical fluidly intersect. At the center, a large, dark whale emerges majestically, seemingly swimming through the space of the canvas. Its mouth is slightly open as if communicating or interacting with the other elements in the scene. Above and to the left, two stylized, pink submarines float in the air, their designs sleek and smooth, contrasting sharply with the textured and organic form of the whale.In the foreground, two figures with pale, elongated faces and wearing black and white striped outfits stand facing each other. Their expressions are solemn and introspective. The figure on the right directs its gaze towards the whale, suggesting a moment of connection or revelation. The air around them is filled with various abstract shapes and patterns, adding to the ethereal and dream-like quality of the painting. The background is a patchwork of muted colors, perhaps indicating an otherworldly landscape or a canvas within a canvas.Overall, the painting evokes a sense of wonder and the uncanny, where the boundaries between air, sea, and human perception are blurred.

Artist

In our gallery, Gintas Banys is a painter who has mastered the realistic painting technique exceptionally well, and who has not become a realist. He takes our familiar everyday routine and crystallises the feeling and emotion of the moment, using various symbols of contemporary culture, recognisable details of reality, the contrast of black and white and colour, and different textures. The artist's main concern is to reveal a person's relationship with his environment, with the current issues and paradoxes; it is important to convey how he feels, to catch his mood. In the artist's opinion, it is usually the eyes that are the main accent in a work, which help to reveal the idea of the painting.

Gintas Banys is the ideological leader of the well-known rock band Pelenai, author of songs and lyrics. Painting has been and is an integral part of his life. "I paint when I don't paint, I play when I don't play - this is my understanding of my mission in this life. In painting, as in my songs, I pay great attention to meaning, to the transmission of thought, to emotion," says G. Banys.

The artist uses mixed media and likes to experiment. As he says, "I never know how the process of work will end and I am satisfied with that, because art is something that pushes me forward, that makes me live".

We are most fascinated by the synthesis of the real and the imaginary, the union of realistic painting and fantasy, which often closely resembles the world of dreams - the most tangible expression of the subconscious. This is where their impact lies.
