More about this artwork

Three fish are depicted in a vertical line against a dark, almost black background. Each fish, with a pale, silvery body, appears to swim upward with its head pointing towards the top of the canvas. Their eyes are noticeably emphasized with a glossy, reflective quality. The paint strokes are visible and add a textured, almost gritty feel to their scaled bodies, capturing the play of light and shadow effectively. The overall atmosphere of the artwork feels somber and introspective, focusing primarily on the stark contrast between the fish and the deep darkness surrounding them.

Artist

Monika Požerskytė

Monika Požerskytė (b. 1981) belongs to the younger generation of Lithuanian photographers. Her distinctive style bridges traditional artistic genres and contemporary practice, earning her acclaim within Lithuania’s art community and beyond.

In the series "Life of Still Life," Monika turns her camera toward themes long embraced by artists: the subtle beauty found in still life. She photographs various natural objects, approaching them with a heightened awareness of change and impermanence. In doing so, she pays tribute to the legacy of the old Dutch masters, evoking the tradition of "nature morte" by focusing on the understated, poetic lifelessness of her subjects as they gradually evolve—wrinkling, drying, shrinking, and fading.

Monika’s work radiates a sense of romantic nostalgia, coupled with a sensitive understanding of life’s fragility. Her palette—soft, almost washed-out hues skillfully blending warm and cool tones—intensifies this feeling of transience. Through this visual language, she encourages viewers to contemplate both the allure and impermanence of life.

What distinguishes Monika Požerskytė’s photographs is not only their evocative subject matter but also their distinctive material presence. She produces her digital images on plywood panels, fusing the classic substrate of traditional painting with contemporary photographic methods. The wood’s natural grain introduces an added sense of warmth and intimacy, lending the images a tactile quality that echoes the themes she investigates.
